LET ME HELP is a practical workbook that puts everything your family will need in one place: documents, accounts, contacts, medical details and your wishes. When the time comes, they'll know where to start.
Pen and paper, or fill it in on your computer. Safe and secure in whatever format you choose.
Every country has its own laws, forms and offices. So each edition comes in two books: a workbook to organise your own affairs, and a guide for the executor who handles them.
Barbara found this out the hard way. When her uncle died, the family discovered that even a very organised person can leave loved ones with questions nobody can answer. Passwords, policies, pensions and plain wishes were scattered or lost.
LET ME HELP is the system she wishes they'd had. It's practical, logical and kind, and you can fill it in at your own pace.
Where your will, deeds, policies, pensions and bank accounts are, and who to contact about each.
Conditions, medicines, doctors and what to do in an emergency, ready when someone needs it fast.
Who gets what, who looks after the dog and how the house runs, in your own words.
Step-by-step help with phones, email, social media and passwords, so nothing gets locked away.
The service, the music and the people you'd like there, so your family isn't left guessing.
Plus a family guide to the first 72 hours, the first year and who to tell.
When someone dies, the hardest calls are to the banks, insurers, pension plans and agencies that all need to be told. These letters are already written, in calm, clear words that ask for exactly what's needed and protect your family from saying the wrong thing before they have the authority to act. They fill in a few details, sign and send. That's hours of searching, worry and second-guessing saved at the hardest time.
No hunting for the right words while grieving.
Careful wording that asks the right questions and avoids costly mistakes.
Each edition's letters fit its own banks, agencies and rules.
Online "digital vaults" ask you to upload your bank details, passwords and policies to a company's servers, and trust that they'll never be hacked, sold or shut down.
LET ME HELP works the other way round. You write it in a book on your shelf, or type it into a PDF on your own computer. We never see a word of it. It stays where you choose to keep it, and your family finds it when they need it.
Pen and paper, or fill it in on your computer. Safe and secure in whatever format you choose.
The USB tip: save your filled-in PDF to a USB stick and keep it with your will or in a safe place. If your computer backs up automatically to iCloud, OneDrive or Google Drive, your files are copied there too. A USB stick keeps your copy completely offline. Update it whenever your details change, and tell your executor where it is.
Type straight into the fillable PDF on your computer, or write by hand in the paperback.
Clear checklists and gentle guidance on every page. You don't have to finish it in one sitting.
Keep the book with your will, or save the PDF to a USB stick and store it somewhere safe. Then tell someone you trust where it is. That one conversation saves them weeks.

I created the LET ME HELP Series with one simple goal: to make life's difficult moments a little easier to manage.
When my uncle died, we found that even a very organised family still needed more help. So I built the system I wish we'd had. Each book offers straightforward checklists, practical guidance and a place to organise the information that matters.

Yes. Unlike online vault apps, LET ME HELP never sends your information anywhere. You write it on paper or type it into a PDF on your own computer.
