Future planning ebook cover on a tablet

A guide to support you through the important considerations and decisions.

It can be difficult to look to the future when you care for someone with disability. Everyday responsibilities can feel overwhelming, leaving little time to consider what the future might hold.

Leap in! has launched a new resource Future planning: A guide for parents and carers to meet the need for information about the difficult issue of future planning.

Studies have highlighted some older parents’ natural apprehension around future planning.

  • Where to start?
  • How to plan ahead when you are so busy today?
  • How do you keep your son, daughter or the person you care for at the centre of decision making?
  • What legal and financial factors do you need to think about?

This comprehensive resource consolidates all relevant information into one place. It provides important considerations and a range of strategies for parents and carers looking after someone with disability.

Future planning: A guide for parents and carers has been designed to provide essential information for planning for life’s ups and downs. It also explores the more difficult topics such as planning for progressive conditions and what happens when a parent or carer can no longer fulfil the role of daily carer.
