Plan ahead to live life to the full

Autumna's Founder Debbie writes for Living Magazine

In the article, Debbie highlights how planning ahead for later life is not something that many consider as they approach mid-life or retirement age.

This article was published in Banbury Living (page 44), Guildford Living (page 48), Mendip Living (page 66), and Winchester Living (page 61)

"Planning ahead for later life is not something that many consider as they approach mid-life or retirement age. In this article, we outline the considerable benefits for those who plan in advance before they have a critical need.  It is a sad fact that most people fail to plan for old age and yet we all know, or at least hope, we will live to experience it." 

Autumna has over 25,00 care providers listed on its website.
