Life's Last Wishes
Life’s Last Wishes is an online platform designed to help you document your final wishes—so your loved ones aren’t left guessing.
As adults, we take responsibility for our lives—but what happens when we die? Too often, we leave behind uncertainty instead of clear guidance, forcing our families to make painful, often overwhelming decisions while they grieve.
Life’s Last Wishes is the gift of certainty. It’s a secure, easy-to-use tool that allows you to record your preferences for your funeral, body disposition, and personal reflections—so your loved ones have clarity when they need it most. Instead of leaving them to struggle with unanswered questions, you can make things easier for them with a few simple steps.
But this isn’t just about planning—it’s about legacy.
Life’s Last Wishes gives you the opportunity to share your life lessons, values, thoughts, hopes, and dreams with the people who matter most. It’s a way to be remembered on your terms—a final act of love that ensures your story, your choices, and your voice live on.
Losing someone you love is heartbreaking. But what makes it even harder? The endless questions. What would they have wanted? Burial or cremation? A big celebration or a quiet farewell? What music? What words?
When grief is raw, the last thing anyone needs is to be burdened with making impossible decisions—guessing, second-guessing, and sometimes even disagreeing about what their loved one would have wanted.
That’s why Life’s Last Wishes exists—to remove that burden. To give your family clarity, not confusion. To make sure they don’t have to struggle with unanswered questions, because you have already provided the answers.
This isn’t just about planning—it’s about love. It’s about ensuring your life is honoured your way and giving your family the peace of mind of knowing they’ve done exactly what you hoped for.
Life’s Last Wishes is for anyone who wants to make things easier for the people they love. It’s for you if:
✅ You don’t want your family to struggle with difficult decisions in their time of grief.
✅ You want to leave behind more than memories—you want to share your life lessons, values, and reflections.
✅ You’re ready to start meaningful conversations with ageing parents, partners, or children about wishes and the reality of loss.
No matter your age or stage in life, this is your chance to remove uncertainty, create a legacy, and give your loved ones the greatest gift of all: clarity and peace.
Life’s Last Wishes guides you through a simple, thoughtful process to capture your final wishes—so your loved ones don’t have to guess.
🔹 Step 1: Reflect – Think about your life, what matters most to you, and how you want to be remembered.
🔹 Step 2: Document – Record your preferences for your funeral, body disposition, and personal reflections—your values, lessons, and messages for your loved ones.
🔹 Step 3: Share – Use Life’s Last Wishes to start important conversations with those closest to you. Ensure they feel supported, not overwhelmed, when the time comes.
This process is not morbid—it’s empowering. It gives you control over your legacy and ensures your loved ones are left with love, not questions.
For something as priceless as peace of mind, Life’s Last Wishes is surprisingly affordable. One small investment ensures that your wishes are documented, clear, and accessible whenever they’re needed.

Yes. Because your life is unique, and your last wishes should be too.
You can make your plan as simple or as detailed as you want. Whether it’s just a few key instructions or a deeply personal reflection of your life, you are in control.
No. Life’s Last Wishes is not a legal document—it’s a personal one.
