Ayrshire residents are being urged to secure their spot this month to have a will written to protect their families’ assets and inheritance during this year’s Will Aid campaign.  

The Will Aid scheme sees solicitors across the UK volunteering their time to write Wills throughout November.

The annual nationwide fundraising campaign shares its proceeds between nine of the UK’s leading charities: ActionAid, Age UK, British Red Cross, Christian Aid, NSPCC, Save the Children, Sightsavers, SCIAF (Scotland) and Trocaire (N. Ireland). 

Will Aid has been running since 1988 and is open to all adults. The campaign has encouraged more than 350,000 people to write their Will with a regulated and insured solicitor.

The scheme has raised over £24 million in donations, and millions more in pledged legacies.

The suggested voluntary donation is £100 for a single will and £180 for a pair of mirror wills. 

Visit www.willaid.org.uk to find your solicitor before bookings close at the end of November.
