Help putting money into a trust

Hi,

I'm new to forums so please forgive me if the answers are all here… happy to be directed…. quick question really…. my brother has some savings over the 'allowed' amount and I want to out them into a trust for him, which can then be left to his nieces in his will.

I've just become an appointee for him and have applied for LPA as he struggles to manage his finances.

Does anyone have any useful advice? He would like to go on holiday occasionally and things like that, so the trust needs to be supportive of him while not counting against him in benefit calculations…

Thanks
