We do not recommend that you try and write your own Will. Always use a legally trained person, ideally a solicitor or your bank manager.

It’s really easy to add us to your existing Will
Rather than write a new Will, you can add a Codicil, a simple addition or alteration to your existing Will.

If you need to write a Will, or update your Will
Your solicitor is the best person to advise you about this. To help you save time and be clear in your mind when you visit your solicitor, we have prepared a short form for you to fill in prior to your visit.

Using an on-line service

If you don’t already have contact with a solicitor, you can use a new web-based service called totallyFREEwills.

You complete your wishes in a number of stages on-line, which you can review, change, stop and start at any.  Once you have finished your wishes are submitted to a solicitor who creates your Will and will send you a copy to sign. When you return it, it will be stored securely so it can be quickly retrieved by your Executors in the event of your death. You will not be charged any money by your solicitor for this service. 

Make a Will Week

Each autumn, a number of local solicitors offer their will-making services to hospice supporters free of charge for one week only. The solicitors who took part in Make a Will Week 2008 are listed below – and we thank them for their terrific support.

Look out for Make a Will Week 2009 later in the year!
