An LPA (Lasting Power of Attorney) is a document you can prepare which appoints one or more people to manage your affairs for you if you become unable to manage on your own. These people are known as your 'Attorneys'.

WHY DO I NEED ONE?
Even if you are married or in a registered civil partnership, your next of kin have no automatic legal right to look after your affairs for you. If you have property, savings or investments in your own name then you are the only person legally able to deal with these.
If you suffer an unexpected illness or accident leaving you unable to manage your own affairs, you will need somebody you trust to look after your affairs for you.
If you lose the ability to manage your own affairs, and you do not have an LPA (or its predecessor - an Enduring Power of Attorney) in place then an application must be made to the Court of Protection for a 'Deputy' to be appointed to look after things for you. This may or may not be a person you would have chosen yourself. The application to Court can take several weeks and is likely to cost much more than the preparation of an LPA.
