Have You Structured Your Super to Protect Your Child’s Future?

For parents of children with a disability, planning ahead means thinking beyond today and ensuring there’s financial security in place for the years to come.

One important area that’s often overlooked is your superannuation and any insurance attached to it. When structured correctly, it can play a powerful role in supporting your child’s future.

Do you know?
• Your super doesn’t automatically form part of your Estate, even if you have a Will.
• This means your super fund may decide who receives your benefit unless you’ve made your intentions clear.
• A binding death benefit nomination allows you to direct your super (and any life insurance held within it) to the right place including your Estate, so it can be distributed according to your wishes.
• Keeping your nomination up to date and aligned with your Estate planning is essential to ensure the outcome you intend.

For families, especially those caring for a child with a disability, these decisions can form part of a broader strategy helping ensure funds are available, structured appropriately, and protected for long-term care and wellbeing.

We can help guide you through these complex but important considerations.

We work alongside experienced financial and estate planning professionals who specialise in supporting families with children with disabilities.

✔ Super & insurance strategies
✔ Estate planning guidance
✔ Tailored support for your family

✨ It’s Run Week! ✨

This Sunday, our incredible Future Living Trust team will be hitting the pavement for the HBF Run for a Reason and the energy is building! 🏃‍♀️💙

From early morning training sessions to playlist prep, our team is putting in the effort to make every step count.

A quick update from our Chair, Julie:
“Training is happening! My last 6km jog/walk took just under 1 hour, so the goal is to finish the 12km event under 2 hours. Let’s see how things shape up! More importantly, I’m putting my run playlist together! Any suggestions welcome" 🎶

But this is about more than just the finish line. Every dollar raised helps us continue supporting people with disability to live the life they choose.

👉 If you’ve been thinking about donating, now is the perfect time to show your support.

👉 Every contribution, big or small, makes a real difference.

Planning for your child’s future isn’t about “having it all sorted”, it’s about feeling confident you’ve done what you can.

Some important questions to consider:
• Where and how will they live long term?
• How can I leave assets safely?
• Will their supports and benefits be protected?
• Who will speak up for them when I’m not there?

These conversations can feel heavy but with the right guidance, they become empowering.

You can start learning at your own pace in a safe, supportive space online using our Safe & Secure Online website. It provides clear, caring education to help families plan with confidence and peace of mind.
