BRM Hosts a Free Wills Month in Partnership with Ashgate Hospice
BRM are delighted to announce that our annual Free Wills Month in support of Ashgate Hospice will take place in April 2024.
Between 1 and 30 April, people of North Derbyshire can have a Will professionally drafted for free. In return, clients are asked to consider making a voluntary donation to Chesterfield-based Ashgate Hospice.
Local people will benefit from a complete Wills service from BRM’s expert Wills team, including free registration with Certainty, The National Wills Register. The suggested minimum voluntary donation is just £75 for a single Will and £150 for a mirror Will for a couple.
BRM has supported Ashgate Hospice for many years and has raised an impressive £71,000 for the charity through its Free Wills Months, helping fund Ashgate Hospice’s vital end-of-life and palliative care for patients and their families across North Derbyshire.
Rob Woodhead, Executive Director at BRM, said: “Ashgate Hospice is an organisation we hold close to our hearts here at BRM and we are delighted to be partnered with them again this year to host our annual Ashgate Hospice Free Wills Month.
“We know the care and support that Ashgate Hospice provides for our community is truly outstanding, so we are honoured to have raised more than £71,000 for them so far.
“Last year we managed to raise an amazing £20,000 for Ashgate during the month and this year we’re aiming to raise even more!
“We’re encouraging anyone who doesn’t have a Will to take advantage of this fantastic offer that not only benefits you and your family but also supports such a worthy organisation.
“It’s very important to have a Will in place, as it ensures that your affairs are in order and your loved ones are provided for.
“I would like to say thank you to our clients for their generous donations and also to our Wills team for their hard work during the Ashgate Hospice Free Wills Month.”
Laura Law, Legacy and In Memory Officer at Ashgate Hospice, said: “We’d like to say a huge thank you to BRM for once again supporting the hospice during the Ashgate Hospice Free Wills Month this year.
“Having a will in place is an important part of making sure that our affairs are in order and ensuring our loved ones are cared for when we’re no longer here.
“Most importantly it enables us to put plans in place so that we can get on with living and make the most of the time we have.
“Not only will supporting Ashgate Hospice Free Wills Month give people a fantastic opportunity to write their will for free, but they’ll be helping us provide care for families across North Derbyshire when they need us most.”
People can make their Will at BRM’s Chesterfield office on Saltergate, with disabled access and free parking. The firm is also offering free home, hospital, and hospice visits for those physically unable to attend the office.
Anyone making a Will must book an appointment to take place between 1 April and 30 April to take advantage of the offer. Appointment spaces are limited, so early booking is advised.
