Solicitors, Brockbanks and Cartmell Shepherd, are once again showing their commitment to the community by supporting Hospice at Home West Cumbria.

Throughout February they will generously provide their professional expertise free of charge to local people taking part in the charity’s annual ‘Make a Will’ campaign.

Instead of charging for their time, the solicitors will donate the legal fees from every simple Will made through the campaign directly to Hospice at Home West Cumbria.

This initiative has become a much-loved tradition, offering peace of mind to individuals while raising vital funds for local hospice care.

Lucy Fuggle, Solicitor and a Trust and Estate Practitioner at Brockbanks Solicitors said: “Brockbanks are privileged to be able to continue to support Hospice at Home West Cumbria through their Make a Will Month.

“By making a will through the scheme you are able to organise your own affairs while knowing our fees are going towards supporting such an important charity in the local area.”

While Claire Wilson, Senior Associate Solicitor at Cartmell Shepherd Solicitors said: “We’re pleased to be supporting Hospice at Home with Make a Will month again this February.

“For the fifth year running our team will be offering Will writing services at a discounted cost, with all proceeds going directly to help the charity’s vital work in the community.We understand that making a Will can feel daunting, but it also brings great reassurance.

“Having your wishes clearly set out gives you peace of mind that they will be honoured and that your loved ones will be supported.

“By taking partyou can safeguard your family’s future while making a meaningful difference to the lives of families who rely on Hospice at Home West Cumbria.”

It costs just £150 for a simple single Will and £200 for a mirror Will, a reciprocal arrangement between two people.

Julie Monk, CEO at Hospice at Home West Cumbria said: “We were delighted with the response to our Make a Will Month campaign last year, supported again by our friends at Brockbanks Solicitors and Cartmell Shepherd Solicitors.

“We encourage everyone to take up the opportunity to have a professionally written will at a discounted rate, which also brings in much-needed income for Hospice at Home West Cumbria.”
