HV has been contacted by local law firm Seth Lovis & Co; they're in John Street. During November, they are taking part in Will Aid. This is the UK's top charity Will-writing scheme.'
Instead of charging usual fees for a basic Will during the month of November, the firm will invite will-makers to make a voluntary donation to the Will Aid charities. The suggested donation is £95 for a single basic Will, £150 for a pair of mirror Wills.'' Will Aid clients will also be able to register their Wills free with Certainty, the National Will Register. This means that a Will can be quickly and easily located when it is needed.
The money raised from donations is shared by nine well-known UK charities: ActionAid, Age UK, British Red Cross, Christian Aid, NSPCC, Save the Children, Sightsavers, SCIAF (Scotland) and Trocaire (Northern Ireland). Last year Seth Lovis raised over £5,000. To date, the firm's solicitors have raised over £65,000 for Will Aid.
Remember it's only during November. If you're interested in this great scheme, book an appointment as soon as you can. Demand is bound to be high. Contact Head of Private Client services, Mr Nicholas Hall, on 020 7404 6565 or by email at enquiry@sethlovis.co.uk'
HV is going to take part. Not only is having a Will a very good idea, but here's an opportunity to have yours drawn up by a top law firm at a bargain price AND the money goes to charity. Everyone wins. We want to bequeath HV Towers to Camden Council. We're sure they'll be able to make some development use of it, like a library and 50% social housing - perhaps.'
