What are the two types of LPA?

• Property and financial affairs: managing bank accounts, paying bills, collecting a pension, selling your home.
• Health and welfare: decisions about your daily routine, medical care, moving into a care home, and (if you choose) life-sustaining treatment.

You can make one or both. Many people make both at the same time.
