Diane Sumpter from our Dorking-based private client team once again took part in this year's Make a Will Fortnight on behalf of St Catherine's Hospice in Crawley.
During Make a Will Fortnight local solicitors agree to waive their normal Will writing fee for the preparation of a basic or standard Will or reviewing an existing Will and in return a donation is made to the Hospice. This year the scheme raised £20,575, with Diane raising £1330. All money raised goes towards helping support and care for people affected by a serious progressive illness, such as cancer, heart, lung or neurological disease who live in West Sussex and East Surrey.
We cannot stress enough the importance of having a valid Will. If you have an existing Will it is important that it is regularly reviewed and updated to reflect your current personal circumstances.
Please contact a member of our Private Client Department for further advice regarding making a Will or reviewing an existing Will.
In the front row from left to right are Joanna Pashley and Diane Sumpter from Downs' Private Client team and Andy Perry, Trusts and Legacies Fundraiser for St Catherine's. They were joined by staff from two other law firms who participated in the Make a Will Fortnight.
