Our Make a Will Month runs every May and October. Writing your Will is incredibly important, and during this month, participating solicitors will be waiving their fees for writing or updating a Will in lieu of a donation to the Hospice. It’s a great way to support your local hospice and also give yourself peace of mind for the future that you have plans in place.
We are incredibly grateful to our solicitors and will-writers who are supporting us this May. You’ll find details of our participating solicitors at the bottom of this page.
Complete the enquiry form below or call our Legacy Officer, Fiz Johnson on 01908 303068 to make an appointment.
You can also email legacies@willen-hospice.org.uk
If you are interested in leaving a gift in your Will to Willen Hospice, we have a comprehensive ‘Gifts in Wills’ guide, which outlines how you can leave a legacy to Willen Hospice after you have taken care of your family and loved ones. You can request a guide in the form below.
If you do decide to leave a gift in your Will to us, please include our name, address and registered charity number:
Willen Hospice, Milton Road, Willen, Milton Keynes, MK15 9AB.
Registered Charity no.: 270194

Please always seek legal advice.
We’ll put you in touch with our participating solicitors who can help you write or update your Will.
Make a list of everything you own, such as the value of your house, car, savings, jewellery, stocks and shares and what you owe. This includes the outstanding balance of your mortgage, overdrafts, bank loans and other debts. This is the time to appoint a trusted friend or family member to be your executor (someone who will make sure your wishes are carried out).
There are three kinds of gifts you should consider. Remember to list the full names and addresses of who you want to benefit.
1. Specific gifts or items.
2. A residuary gift. A gift that can be made once all debts have been paid and any fixed gifts given, often a portion of your estate, divided into percentages.
3. A pecuniary gift. This is a specific amount of money.

Thinking ahead to the end of your life can be difficult, as can touching on sensitive events in life that affect the decisions you make in your Will.
