Free Will Month – May and October
Part of the way in which we support Dougie Mac hospice is to provide free Wills every May and October.
We have seen first-hand the invaluable work Dougie Mac does for people during their final days. Their compassionate support amidst difficult circumstances truly makes a difference.
Throughout the entire month of May and October, we offer to draft basic Wills free of charge. Dougie Mac ask that you donate £500 or more to Dougie Mac or include a gift to them in your Will. We then waive our usual fee for a basic Will.
