This guidance was published by the Office of the Public Guardian on 5th October. It helps the person completing the Lasting Power of Attorney form (known as the 'donor') avoid common errors which will ultimately speed up the process of appointing an Attorney (donee).
A checklist for staff by Edge directors, Steven and Aasya is also available free to download from the Edge website. It assists staff to work through the legal checks required to ensure the validity of a Lasting Power of Attorney form. If you already have the book Working with the Mental Capacity Act 2005 it is in the Lasting Power of Attorney chapter on page 171
