DUE TO OVERWHELMING NUMBERS REGISTERING FOR THIS EVENT WE ARE NOW OFFERING THE SAME EVENT AT 2 DIFFERENT TIMES TO CATER FOR DEMAND: 12.30PM AND 2PM.

Tickets here are for the 12.30pm session. If you can make it to the 2pm session (less crowded) please click here to book.

Aside from dealing with the grief and medical implications of a terminal diagnosis, whether your own or that of a family member, there are lots of practical matters to consider too. Some things can be organised well in advance to save stress at an already stressful time.

In this workshop we'll address issues like:

what should go in a will and how often should it be updated?
how to write a valid will to ensure probate will be granted in court/ that it will not be challenged
what do I do with a will once it is written?
how to find/ access a family member's will who dies suddenly?
what happens if you don't have a will?
what is an executor?
how and when should I appoint an executor?
what are my responsibilities if I am someone's executor?

We will have staff from Community Law Canterbury and local law firm Argyle Welsh Finnigan facilitate this FREE lunchtime session at the new public library in Ashburton, Te Kete Tuhinga. There will be time to ask your own questions relating to Wills and being an executor after the presentation. You are welcome to bring your lunch with you and eat it during the event. There is also a café in the library should you wish to purchase something there.

People of all ages, cultures and backgrounds are welcome.

Please register so we know how big a room we'll need and can advise you the day before the event which room we will be in.

This is the second event in a lunchtime series Death and Paperwork, organised by Hospice Mid Canterbury and Keep Learning Mid Canterbury. The other topics in the series are:

28 February: Banking and Insurance
30 April: EPAs, Lawyers & What you can do yourself
