Will Writing ServiceSt John’s Hospice

In partnership with generous local law firms

All proceeds to St John’s Hospice

As a St John’s Hospice supporter we want to offer you the chance to write or amend a simple will with one of our valued and local partner law firms.

It's a great opportunity to make your first will, or update your current will. There is no obligation to include St John’s Hospice in your will in order to take advantage of this service, but of course we would love it if you chose to do so.

Providing support and confidence to make informed choices…We understand that making a will and ensuring a secure future for family and friends, is one of the most important things that everyone has to consider at some point in their life.

Having a valid will allows you to provide for your loved ones after you have gone and is a certain way to make sure your wishes will be carried out. It will also ease the burden on those left behind who will handle your affairs.

Writing or changing your will is not difficult with the right legal advice. Thanks to our valued local partner law firms who operate this service, you can put your mind at rest quickly and inexpensively.

Think about the futureIf you die without making a will, it can make things very difficult for your family, and they may also end up with costly legal fees. Getting things sorted now need not be expensive or time consuming, and can make things easier for you and your loved ones.

Think about your loved onesWe know your family are the most important thing to you, and we understand that ensuring they are provided for is vital. By making a will, you can ensure your money and possessions go to the people you love after you’re gone.

Why we chose to write my will through the St John’s Hospice Will Service...

“My husband and I knew that we needed to update our wills as they were 20 years old, but we just kept putting it off until a family

tragedy brought the importance home to us.

I volunteer at St John’s Hospice and had heard about the service. We wanted a way of saying thank you to the hospice for the practical,

emotional and medical support the Hospice at Home team had given to our family. Using the service has enabled us to support the hospice

and say thank you.

The service is so straight forward, I contacted Helen who gave me a choice of local solicitors; we chose one and made an appointment. Professional, friendly advice followed and our wills were ready in a

couple of weeks.

Now we have the peace of mind that our children will not have to make any difficult and upsetting decisions after our deaths, as our wishes and plans are set out clearly, sympathetically and legally.

You never know when your time will come; you’re never too young to write a will.”
