We would all lik mor spac in ourhoms and with houss in th UK gt-

ting smallr, spac is at a prmium. But

what if there was an aordable way

to crat mor spac in our homs? A

simpl solution for all thos popl fd

up of living among cluttr and on that

dosnt rquir planning prmission or

any major structural building work.

For most, the loft is a dark and dingy

place visited seasonally; once to dig

out th Christmas dcorations and

then again to bring down the holiday

suitcases. A precarious scramble across

dusty beams, torch in hand; grabbing

whats needed then clambering back

past boxes illed with long-forgotten

belongings.

But that dark and dingy place is worth

thousands. In fact, it taks up a third of

the loor space in an average home. Soshouldnt you be making the most of it?

And thats whr Mor Than Loft

Laddrs (MTLL) coms in. Foundd

in Bolton over ive years ago, MTLL

specialises in generating space by mak-

ing the loft easily accessible. And thats

all it dos. Its not a gnric

building company, and its not

jack-of-all-trades. MTLL only

installs loft hatchs, laddrs,

boarding, lighting and insula-

tion. Its what the company

does all day, every day, using qualiied

local installers who are reliable, tidy

and eficient.

Th latst MTLL franchis to opn

covrs Crw and Chstr and is

run by skilled tradesman, Adam

Shepherd...Our average job is about

290 and only takes a few hours tocomplete, says Adam.

And for that, customers get a modern

two sction aluminium laddr 50sq

ft of boarding and a light to make the

spac saf and scur.

Th pric customrs ar quotd is

the price they will pay, with no

additional call out or crdit card

chargs.

More Than Loft Ladders is al-

ready a trusted name in the northwst with ovr 2,500 succssful instal-

lations, and I really wanted to bring it

hr to Chshir...Its such a grat and

cost eective way for people to gain the

extra space they need, added Adam.

Time to update the willTe temptation many people have is to writeor update their own will. Tey might only beas cheap as 4.99 to buy, but DIY wills couldprove costly in the long run. Drawing upyour own will risks exposing your estate to acontested claim ater your death and could leaveyour loved ones with nothing.A will is the one document that coversabsolutely everything that you own and is

important to you, so it needs to be watertight,cover all eventualities and not be at risk rombeing contested. Doing it yoursel will increasethe chances o mistakes creeping in and couldeven render it invalid i it goes badly wrong.Many people are unaware o the laws

surrounding intestacy, so trying to take on thetask o will writing yoursel could leave loved

ones with nothing, and that could include thehouse they live inMaking a will is particularly important i

you are not married to your partner but arecohabiting. Contrary to what many peoplethink, there is no such thing as a common lawwie or husband. Under English law, even i aman and woman have lived together or manyyears and have children, they are not regardedin law as related.

It is essential that anyone with a will who hasnot looked to update it recently goes to theirsolicitor to review it and, i needs be, changeit to reect their current fnancial situation.A solicitor is best placed to advise on anynecessary amendments, as well as provideguidance on tax planning.

Please ring 0151 355 9813 if you are interested in homing any of these

cats and we will arrange a home check. (It will be an answering machine.

Leave your name and number and we will return your call). Go to www.

southwirral.cats.org.uk to see other cats in need of a home.

There is an adoption fee of 40 per cat. Each cat will be:

Fully examined by a veterinary surgeon, Vaccinated at least once against u and

enteritis, Treated against eas, tapeworm and roundworm, Neutered if old enough.

Micro chipped He will also come with four weeks Petplan insurance cover, which youmay choose to continue, Giving invaluable peace of mind and reassurance as you and your cat embark on this

lifelong friendship

South Wirral Cats Protection have a number of cats who desperately need a home.

Can you give a cat a home?

CASEY

Quiet and gentle girlCasey is a sweet natured, very gentle and quiet girl.She

has lived with a single lady so we are looking for a fairly

quiet home forher without children, possibly with an

older couple or single person who is athome during the

day, where she can receive lots of attention and fuss

Casey has not been used to going outside as her owner

lived in a third foorfat. So she could be homed as an

indoor pet, or perhaps to somewhere with asafe private

garden where she can get used to going outside if she

wishes,initially under supervisionRef: H12- 37

JEMIMA

Special cat looking for a special human friend

Jemima is a very friendly 1 year old cat who

loves attention.Unfortunately as with a lot of

white cats Jemima is completely deaf. She

wouldlike to be the only pet in a child free

home as she cant hear hazards and itwouldbe better if she lived indoors so we are looking

for a indoor home orbetter still somewhere

with an escape proof garden

This special cat is looking for a special human

friend who will not be put offby her deafness

but will give her all the love and affection she

needs in asafe, cosy home, with someone who

is at home a lot of the time

Her vacinations are up todate and she has

been microchippedRef: H12-35
