We are pleased to advise that we are taking part in the Will Aid Scheme again this November 2021. The Will Aid scheme takes place across the country throughout the month of November and supports ActionAid, Age UK, British Red Cross, Christian Aid, NSPCC, Save the Children, Sightsavers, SCIAF (Scotland) and Trocaire (N. Ireland). Participating solicitors have raised more than £21 million for the Will Aid charities since it launched 32 years ago.
Law firms across the county are being asked to sign up and pledge a portion of their time to write basic Wills, waiving their normal fee and instead asking clients to make a voluntary donation to Will Aid. The suggested voluntary donation for a basic Will is £100 for a single Will and £180 for a pair of basic mirror Wills. Donations support the vital work of the nine partner charities. Any additional work over and above a basic Will can be charged separately and is paid to the law firm.
Due to COVID-19, we have adapted our procedures and we are now able to take your instructions and have you sign your Wills remotely. We also have new procedures in place to allow face-to-face meetings to take place safely if preferred.
