A gift in your will to North London Hospice would allow us to continue providing our specialist care in the local community. It needn’t even be a large amount, it could be any sum of money, a piece of jewellery or other item.
How do I make a will?
Making a will need not be expensive and there are several ways of going about it. It’s best to make an appointment with a solicitor if you want to make a new will or change an existing one. Some events in your life, such as getting married can invalidate an existing will. A will is an important document and without taking expert advice it’s easy to make a mistake. When you’ve made your will you’ll be reassured that your wishes will be carried out. We are happy to provide you with a list of solicitors in our local area.
