Plan for the future and protect your interests with this Welfare Power of Attorney form for Scotland.

A Welfare Power of Attorney lets you appoint someone you trust to deal with your personal welfare matters when you are unable to do so because you have been incapacitated, whether due to illness, injury or age. You decide what the extent of the powers are that you give to your attorney, and whether to place any limits or conditions on your attorney’s ability to act for you.

The form includes instructions and information on how to complete and register your Power of Attorney.

This Scotland Welfare Power of Attorney is updated as of October 2007, and is provided in MS Word format.
