Will Aid volunteers wanted

© Copyright LexisNexis 2026. All Rights Reserved.
Solicitors have been urged to join the 2019 Will Aid campaign, which takes place across the country throughout the month of November. 

All they need to do is volunteer a portion of their time and waive their fee for writing a basic will, inviting clients to make a donation instead: for example, £100 per will or £180 for a pair of mirror wills. The money raised is then shared between nine charities. Participating solicitors can showcase their expertise and may gain other fee-earning work from Will Aid clients.
