Dayle Adams joins the Podcast Today to talk about planning ahead of time. what she does with clients and how she came to be in this line of work

Dayle found grieving overshadowed by administration, lack of paperwork and a need for more help, which was only available from the person who had lost capacity or died.

Planning Ahead of Time (PAT) was set up in honour of her Mum to create a platform of support. In life, we help and support the people closest to us. We can also do this in death, by making sure plans are in place and the information is easily available and accessible.

By combining practical organisation with compassionate spiritual care, PAT empowers you to confidently plan for the future, safeguarding your legacy and providing ease for those you leave behind.

She says we can’t predict the future, but we can plan for it. Death is inevitable. Planning is essential. Planning Ahead of Time helps people with dying, death, loss and grief.
