Join the charity Will-making scheme that builds your client base and helps people in need around the world

Will Aid is one of the most effective fundraising campaigns and depends on a unique partnership with the legal profession. We need your help to build on this success. The next campaign will run in November and we would like more solicitors to join to meet the demand from will makers.

Each November, more than a thousand solicitors around the UK offer to waive their fees for drawing up a basic Will for Will Aid clients. Instead of charging their fee, they ask clients to make a donation of at least £75 for a single Will or £110 for a pair of mirror Wills. This money is distributed between the nine partner charities.

Simply register as a Will Aid solicitor and we will give your details to anyone wishing to make a Will in your area. You choose the number of Wills you draw up under the scheme so you have total control over the workload.

Will Aid is endorsed by the Probate Section of the Law Society who encourage their members to participate.

Why take part in Will Aid?

  • People in need all over the world benefit from the work of our partner charities
  • Your clients benefit from the protection of a properly drawn up Will
  • You benefit by not only attracting new clients but also from the knowledge that you are using your skills to further the work of nine highly respected charities

In addition to the satisfaction of helping the Will Aid charities, you will:

  • Raise your firms's profile through the massive publicity generated by Will Aid
  • Demonstrate to clients that you share their concern for those in need
  • Attract new clients with above average income levels
  • Have the opportunity to build a lasting relationship with the new client, which often results in recommendations to their family and friends
  • Generate fee earning instructions from Executorships and clients' future legal requirements
