‘In HB, Re (Appointment of Personal Welfare Deputy) [2026] EWCA Civ 960 (24 July 2026), Sir Stephen Cobb, President of the Family Division and President of the Court of Protection concluded that the judge was wrong to refuse the application, finding that the appointment of a deputy would in practice enhance rather than diminish the effectiveness of decision-making for the appellants’ son, HB.’
