The Social work team at Quayside Medical Practice are hosting an event on June 17 2025 focused on the importance of Planning Ahead.

This is the first planning ahead event held by the MDT Social Work Team and will provide individuals with information on how best to plan for their future and end of life choices. The Planning Ahead event will be held in Derry's on Tuesday, June 17 2025. Individuals can drop in anytime from 3.00pm to 6.00pm.

The Social Work Team explained: “Within our area of work we have observed when individuals don't plan for the future it can cause additional stress at a very difficult time. With careful planning and consideration, you can ensure your wishes and choices are respected; this provides peace of mind and eases the stress for loved ones left behind.”

The event will have local stakeholders hosting individual stalls and keynote speakers that will provide invaluable information on how best to Plan Ahead.

Individuals can expect to gain important information on legal, financial, medical and personal aspects relating to Planning Ahead.

“We warmly welcome everyone to come along to this important and informative event which we hope will provide the help, support and guidance for planning for the future. There is no requirement to register in advance. Thank you.”
