When a loved one loses the ability to make decisions for themselves, families often find themselves in unfamiliar territory. The newly launched Deputyship Guide is here to help.

Developed in collaboration with the MSF Singapore's Office of the Public Guardian and the PSD Singapore, the Guide offers a clear, accessible introduction to deputyship - what it is, when it may be needed, and how to apply for Simplified Deputyship step by step.

As part of the Deputyship Workgroup, the Judiciary was involved in the research on the deputyship journey with self-represented persons, consulted with Family Justice Courts judges, and reviewed the Guide to ensure it reflects the real needs of caregivers and families on the ground.
