Hello everyone,
Both of my parents suffer from dementia and my father in particular is declining quite rapdidly. They are still living at home with my adult younger brother who suffers from Asperger's Syndrome. Carers visit the house 3 times a day, but I think it is only a matter of time before we have to consider residential care.
I live and work overseas and have a young daughter who I do not want to uproot in order to return to the UK. I have Lasting Power of Attorney for both health and finances, but the problem is that my parents' bank will not allow me to register my LPA. I therefore have to rely on the family solicitor to arrange all payments for care, home repairs, etc.
I realise that it is against the rules of the forum to promote specific goods or services, but could anyone direct towards a website/FAQ etc. that could help me to find a bank that will allow me to manage my parents' finances from abroad?
Thanks in advance
