A NEW booklet to help people manage their affairs is being offered by Age Concern Dorchester.

The charity has launched Lifebook to help people store important documents such as passports, insurance policy details and birth certificates.

Chief officer Wendy Hilton said: "Our research and years of experience working with older people in Dorchester shows that as we age we appreciate the importance of planning and getting our affairs in order.

"This is why Lifebook has been created."
