Box of Me’ Future Planning Drop-In for Free Wills Month

A safe and inclusive space to think more about plans for your care and
end of life.

This is session will be held in person from 2-4pm as part of LGBT
Foundation’s Community Cafe on 3rd October.

Drop-in – no need to book.

‘Box of Me’ is a fun and informative space for LGBTQ+ adults which
invites you to think more about the plans you could put in place for
your care and end of life. The aim of the workshop is to ensure you can
be your authentic and full self throughout all of your lifetime (and
beyond!). This session was created by LGBT Foundation’s Pride in Ageing
programme in collaboration with St Ann’s Hospice (now Moya Cole
Hospice).

How does the drop-in work? At our ‘box decoration’ table in the
Community Cafe you will be provided with a box to personalise with
available craft materials (while stocks last).

You will also be directed to a separate area where you can call at
different ‘action’ stations to find out more about the plans you could
be putting in place for serious illness or end of life care and add
information about the things that are important to you to your box.

Topics you could explore include:• My life story, identity and who is
important to me• My advance care plan and decision-making• My will•
Donating my organs • What my funeral would look like

There will also be information available at the session about LGBT
Foundation’s Free Wills Service with Octopus Legacy.
