Make a Will Month 2024

Get a Will professionally written and support St Leonard’s

Our Make a Will Month is back this October, giving you the opportunity to have your Will written by a local solicitor in exchange for a donation towards patient care at St Leonard's Hospice.

Making a Will may be something we don’t like to think about, but once it’s done it gives you peace of mind knowing your family, friends and causes close to your heart are looked after in the way you want.

Although it is possible to write a Will by yourself, it is highly advisable to use a solicitor to make sure that your Will is valid and that it properly reflects your wishes.

Follow these four simple steps to take part

Step 1: Choose a solicitor from this list and contact them to make an appointment in October. Don’t forget to mention St Leonard’s Make a will month.

Step 2: Get everything ready. List your assets (property, possessions and money) and the people and organisations you’d like to remember in your Will. You can read our free will writing guide here.

Step 3: Have your Will written by the participating solicitor of your choice and complete the donation form that your solicitor will provide.

Step 4: Relax safe in the knowledge that you have put your affairs in order for you and your family.

This offer applies to standard Wills, mirror Wills and codicils (a supplement making a change or addition to an existing Will) only.
If your Will is not standard, your solicitor will advise you and agree a fee with you before proceeding.
Please note this is not a free Wills scheme and a donation must be made in exchange for a Will being written by one of the participating solicitors.
A standard Will usually costs around £150 + VAT.
The suggested donations for our Make a Will Month are £90 for a single Will, £180 for a joint Will and £60 for a codicil.
