Hi all,
Mum was siagnosed early 2020 and has been deemed to have capacity with funds still as of around 1 year ago, and wants to gift birthday money etc to grandkids and sometimes grown kids for special occasions like birthdays and Christmas.
Is there a ruling on this I can follow for her? ie can she give 'what she would normally have given' or more if she decides to?
She took out cash last Christmas £200 each for 3 of her grandkids but didn't mention it until she was giving it to them.
So I am wonedrting about this Christmas as that is more than she would have given in the past. If she does it again, I want to be sure it's ok as technically I am her POA for finances but don't want to intervene if I don't need to.
Thanks
