We hiked the woods, fields and streams of this quiet and ancient place at the edge of an old region called The New Forest, STANSWOOD, PART 2 Continued from page 32 and considered our past, present and future”.

Denise Major, Director of Patient Services at Oakhaven said: “Many who attend the Oakhaven Wellbeing groups and support activities at our Coates Centre have shared that it would be useful to have more information about the organisations and services available in the local community. Life can change in so many different ways as we get older - for some, this might mean more time to try a new hobby or do the things they love, whilst others might need a little help at home or advice about wills. The Own Your Later Life Exhibition aims to provide information for everyone that might be useful as the years advance, in a calm and relaxed environment. We look forward to welcoming you.” Vikki Hodgson, Practice Manager for New Forest Wealth Management, said: “We are excited to sponsor this important event. Planning for later life is key. Funding some form of long-term care, whether at home or in a residential care setting, is increasingly likely. And as you may know, it’s not cheap. Few of us relish the thought of having a conversation with our families about their finances. Yet it can be one of the most important conversations for them and you that you will ever have. The financial and emotional impacts that can come as a result of a failure to plan can be deep and long-lasting for those left behind. We are proud to be working alongside Oakhaven Hospice to provide accessible information in this area of planning.” Find out more about the Own Your Later Life Exhibition: www.oakhavenhospice.co.uk/ownyour-later-life or contact: natalie.hutchins@ oakhavenhospice.co.uk Oakhaven Hospice and New Forest Wealth Management to Host ‘Own Your Later Life’ Exhibition
