Not For Profit Law

The situation with medical decisions is slightly different. The Court are very reluctant to give blanket orders enabling people to make medical and health/welfare decisions. They tend to only make orders when very specific issues need to be resolved. In contrast, if you have a health and welfare LPA in place, your Attorneys would always be able to advocate on your behalf, making it much more likely that you would receive the medical care you would want.

LPAs need to be registered with the Office of the Public Guardian (part of the Court of Protection) before they can be used. This process is currently taking approximately 20 weeks. It is therefore very sensible to make and register your LPAs in advance of any need for their use.

Not For Profit Law can guide you through the process of making and registering LPAs suited to your specific needs. If you would like to have an informal discussion, or book an appointment, please contact them on 01603 555440 or by email at enquiries@notforprofitlaw.co.uk.

Suitable for everyone, our weekly meditation classes at Inner Space are a perfect opportunity to take a break from busy daily life and experience the benefits of meditation. The purpose of meditation is to cultivate positive attitudes and this helps us overcome bad mental habits. Through our meditations we learn that happiness is a state of mind and that its real source lies within us and not in external things or situations. Then because our mind is peaceful and undisturbed we have fewer worries and less stress. We cover a different topic of teachings, with associated meditations, each week and there is also time for Q&A with a tea/coffee. This term we are exploring, 'Overcoming What Holds us Back', learning how to recognise our own potential to overcome these bad mental habits. Therefore we are able to relate to ourself in a more positive way, empowering us to become the person we really want to be. Taught by Simon James (Amoghasiddhi Kadampa Buddhist Centre, Attleborough).
