Will Writing

Hi,

I'm looking to write my first Will. I was wondering what is the fastest & easiest way to do this.
Over the internet, order forms, visit someone............

Any help would be very much grateful
Thanks!

  • Free Wills Month runs each March and October offering free wills to the over 55s, yet it's limited to just 20 towns/cities which are usually different each time the scheme runs.

    The next campaign is in March 2011. During March the campaign will visit Basingstoke, Bedford, Blackpool, Chesterfield, Coventry, Croydon/Streatham, Darlington, Eastbourne, Harrogate, Hastings, Newcastle-upon-Tyne, Northampton, Peterborough, Sheffield, Slough, Sunderland, Twickenham, Wolverhampton and York.

    The full list of solicitors will be available from 1st March 2011.

    If they are not in a location near to you check back in October when the next campaign begins.

    There's also Will Aid.

    A UK wide scheme, run every November, Will Aid teams up with over 1,000 solicitors to provide basic wills. One of its main advantages is it doesn’t impose a minimum age on who can get a will. More information can be found here.
