A power of attorney is a legal process that enables a customer to designate one or more individuals, known as attorneys, to act on their behalf in the event that they become unable to manage their financial affairs.

In order to create a power of attorney, the customer must have the mental capacity to do so. This can typically be done with the assistance of a solicitor or through the government's website. It is also necessary to register the power of attorney with the Office of the Public Guardian prior to its use with humm. More information on this process can be obtained by visiting: https://www.gov.uk/power-of-attorney
