Age UK Isle of Wight are working with local legal firms to offer all Island residents over the age of 50 a discounted Will Writing Service throughout March 2020.
It is important to make a Will for many reasons, by taking the time to plan your future and that of the ones you love, you can ensure your wishes are met.
You may want to ensure the passing of your assets/specific items onto children or other relatives or to protect yourself from Inheritance Tax.
If you don’t make a Will, your estate may be distributed by the Government and this may not be to the people who you would wish to benefit.
In return for a donation of £75 (Single Will) or £150 (Joint Will) to Age UK Isle of Wight, one of the participating legal firms will write you a basic Will.
3 local legal firms are involved in the scheme this year: Wheelers Solicitors, Glanvilles Damant Ltd and Walter Gray & Co. Solicitors, all generously donating their time and expertise.
Elisha Leachman Fundraising Manager, said:
“Writing a Will is something that we all put off but need to make sure that we do. By having a Will written you are able to protect the people and causes that you love and care most about. Our Will Writing Scheme offers peace of mind to participants, along with the added bonus of donating to a great local charity, dedicated to helping older Islanders live well in later life.”
