It’s astonishing but the latest report from the National Will Register shows that 56% of UK adults have not made a will. If you’re one of them, have you considered the implications for those you leave behind? The law doesn’t always work the way you think it is going to. Planning and making a will is the only way you can ensure what you have is divided according to your wishes. As always, the best recommendation is to give yourself some peace of mind, plan ahead and take professional advice. That’s why we are supporting this brilliant initiative from Oakhaven Hospice.” For more information, please visit: www.oakhavenhospice.co.uk/writea-will, or contact the Fundraising Team directly on 01590 677773 or: fundraising@oakhavenhospice.co.uk
