End-of-Life Planning Handbook for Couples

End-of-life planning for couples: if only one is left to carry the load

As a couple, you share a life. When the life of one is taken, it leaves the other’s life in disarray.

Like most households, each partner is responsible for different things. Do both of you know all the bills and when and how they are paid? Do you have a pet on medication? Do you both know the details of this? What about where all the important documents are kept? And what about the passwords for literally everything from banking, streaming services, even email addresses – do you both know them?

We take for granted our roles in daily life as a couple. But if your partner were gone, how easily could you continue moving the household forward in their absence?

The Couples End-of-Life Planning Handbook turns your shared life admin into a clear, step-by-step plan – accounts, providers, policies, contacts and next actions – so your partner can manage and finalise your affairs without guesswork.
