    Regarding POA - the fee can be reduced or waived if the donor has a low income/is on certain means-tested benefits. 
    It's not difficult!

    Shielding has ended.
    Shielding hasn't ended. Lockdown has ended. My family and I are still shielding simply because a high number of people are still dying from Covid where I live. 
    You can't be living in the UK then.
    I think more people died of cancer and flu than Covid today, and yesterday, and all of 2020 tbf
    Something like 30 men a day from prostate cancer and 30 women a day from breast cancer every day of every week all year round so no debate required - it’s fact

    The difference is you are choosing to shield , it is no longer on the advice of the powers that be. It’s just the same as any normal times if a person chooses not to go,out. 
    My step mother has been told 'by the powers that be' to shield still.
    Who are "The powers that be"
    They must be worse than "clinically extremely vulnerable" then !
