  • Summary

  • Maisie was struggling to cope and thought giving someone control of her finances would help: she later regretted signing that Power of Attorney order and tells Sue Mitchell why.

    The hidden scandal of Power of Attorney - Concerned neighbours ask Sue Mitchell for help.

    Giving someone else control of your finances and decisions – through Lasting Power of Attorney – is meant to come with a guarantee that they always act in your best interest. In this series, BBC investigative reporter Sue Mitchell explores a widespread business practice where some people are moved out of their homes and left with no idea what is happening to their money. It often involves people with little or no family to ask questions about where they are moved to, or to challenge the fees involved. It can be people who’ve accumulated wealth over a lifetime, whose assets are now helping to fund those who are taking decisions for them.

    Shadow World: Gripping stories from the shadows - BBC investigations from across the UK.

    Presented by Sue Mitchell Produced by Sue Mitchell, Joel Moors and Winifred Robinson
