WRITING OR UPDATING YOUR WILL

There are many stages at which you may feel you need to write or update your Will.

Many people write a Will when there are significant changes in their life – such as getting married, divorced, widowed, buying a house, having children or retiring. A will should be part of life planning – whatever stage of life you’re at. When the times comes to update your Will.

To help with this process, all year round we offer our supporters the chance to write or update your Will for free, with our online and telephone will writing service, Farewill.

Free Will Opportunities

Throughout the year we partner with local solicitors to provide Free Will offers, for your chance to write or amend your will for free.

We team up with local solicitors who provide their time and expertise free of charge. The next opportunity will be in Autumn 2026 and more information will be listed here.

You can use our Farewill online or phone service all year round for free.

There is no obligation to leave a gift to the hospice in your will – we just think it’s really important that you have one. Having a will makes your wishes clear – and without it, anything you own will be distributed according to inheritance laws, rather than going to the people and charities you intended.

Your family and loved ones must come first. But if you’re able to, leaving a gift in your will to the hospice, no matter how big or small, makes all the difference. Whether it’s 1% of your estate, a cash gift or an item, you can help secure hospice care for generations to come. And that’s an incredibly legacy for the community.

You can speak to the team for more information, you can call us on 020 8320 5785 or email team@gbch.org.uk
