About this webinar
Join us for an informative and empowering session with Melissa Charity, Customer Advocate at the Queensland Public Trustee. Melissa brings extensive experience in advocating for clients and supporting individuals and families to navigate some of life’s most important legal and personal decisions.

- Wills and Estate Planning – ensuring your wishes are clearly documented and legally sound
- Enduring Powers of Attorney – understanding who can make decisions for you and when
- Financial Administration – managing finances when decisions can no longer be made independently
- Guardianship and Decision-Making – safeguarding personal, health, and lifestyle choices
- Protecting Vulnerable People – recognising risks and promoting safety, dignity, and autonomy
This session is ideal for individuals, families, carers, and professionals seeking information on planning ahead and protecting the wellbeing of themselves and others.
Should any attendees have any specific question they would like to answer during the session, they are encouraged to submit any questions for the QPT prior to the session (by 19 March) adhoc questions can also be asked on the day.
