Our Story

“As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands, one for helping yourself, the other for helping others.” —Audrey Hepburn

The idea for The Little Workbook Of Life has been bubbling away for a Long time. I want my loved ones to remember our laughter and fun times. Not the horrendous admin and red tape!

My aunt died suddenly in January 2019 and left a room full of messy paperwork. It took me weeks to sort through it all. The solicitor who was supposed to process the probate, failed to. To fill in all the paperwork and apply for probate myself took another 6 weeks.

How do I deal with the estate after death? Each step of the way, it became more obvious that it was necessary to keep all my details in one place. My once straightforward affairs have become more and more complicated.

I own a small business, several online bank accounts, approximately 7 pension accounts and right now my 2 gorgeous Border Collies Ringo & Star. Nope I didn’t name them! Both adopted at different times and I just kept their names 🙂

It’s important for me to know that if and when something happens to me (and Covid-19 is making that all too real right now!) My affairs are in order and Ringo & Star are safe, well looked after and loved. This Workbook has space to record all the important information – who I bank with, who my gas and electricity is with, do I have a mortgage…etc…

I had 3 dark years of sickness and death in my family. This will be a light when my time comes and my loved ones have to sort everything out.

Ringo & Star

Ringo’s 8th birthday present was his sister Star. He loves cuddles, freedom off-lead in parks and playing fetch with his squeeky ball.

Star loves sneaky farts, freedom off-lead in parks and making you fetch her squeeky ball.

What People Are Saying

I work in I.T., am separated and have children. There is SO much useful content. I didn't think of half the things in The Little Workbook of Life. I have so much online this has helped me to organise.

I really like the little quotes. My affairs are really complex and this has got me sorting things out chapter by chapter. Which is better for me than just having the workbook gathering dust.

What a great idea - will save lots of hassle at a time when you really don't need it. It seems so obvious but how many of us have important information like this in one place? Simple ideas are always the best.

Would recommend to friends and family, especially with what's happening in the world today!
