Free Wills Month – Secure Your Will Professionally

What is Free Wills Month?

Free Wills Month occurs twice each year, during March and October, providing people aged 55 and over with an opportunity to have a simple will drafted or updated professionally at no charge. Solicitors participating in the scheme generously offer their expertise, supported by charities that encourage participants to consider making a voluntary donation. The scheme aims to make will writing accessible and affordable, highlighting the importance of having an up-to-date will.

A simple will typically outlines who you'd like to inherit your property or assets, designates executors to carry out your wishes, and may include guardianship for minor children. While Free Wills Month focuses primarily on straightforward wills, more complex scenarios—such as trusts, detailed estate planning, or specific financial arrangements—might incur additional fees, depending on individual circumstances.

Although Free Wills Month provides a valuable opportunity for many, some individuals prefer to seek professional assistance independently to ensure greater flexibility and comprehensive personalisation.
