Walker Foster is delighted to support local young man, Oliver Pennell, an Explorer Scout from North Yorkshire. ⚜️

Oliver has been selected, alongside others, to plan and attend a three-week trip around Europe, starting in Cologne, Germany, to promote scouting to children and teenagers. The trip will take place from 24th July to 14th August 2027. 🌍

Oliver is currently raising funds for this worthwhile opportunity, and we would be pleased to see other local businesses get involved and offer their support too. Please drop a comment if you would like to donate, and we will gladly pass your details on to Oliver.

As well as making a financial donation, we have also provided Oliver with a Walker Foster branded T-shirt, hoodie and beanie hat to help keep him warm and comfortable on his travels.

Good luck to Oliver and the team - we are sure you will do brilliantly! 👏

This week marks , an important reminder to think about future planning and the support you may need if you were ever unable to make decisions for yourself.

Do you have a Lasting Power of Attorney in place?

An LPA allows you to choose trusted people to make decisions on your behalf if you ever lose capacity. Without one, loved ones may not be able to manage your finances, property, health or welfare decisions without going through a more complex legal process.

Putting an LPA in place can provide reassurance that the people you trust most are able to support you if needed.

At Walker Foster, our Wills, Probate, Lasting Powers of Attorney and Trusts team can guide you through the process with clear, sensitive and practical advice.
