When it comes to writing your will, it can be difficult to know where to start. We have partnered with two local organisations to help carers access legal advice.
Free will-writing service
Once you’ve made provision for your loved ones, leaving a gift to a charity is a wonderful way to acknowledge the positive impact of a good cause close to your heart. Remembering VOCAL in your will can make a real difference to the lives of unpaid carers in Edinburgh and Midlothian.
We offer a free will-writing service for carers together with Bequeathed.
The process is as follows:
- Complete an online form on the Bequeathed website
- Your form will be sent to a solicitor
- The solicitor will create the final document, and send it to you
- You can have a 30-minute video call with the solicitor, to discuss the details of your will
Your gift can help ensure that our carers have the support they need. More information on leaving a gift in your will is available on the Remember a Charity in Your Will website.
Legal surgeries
VOCAL also offers carers free, 30-minute appointments with local solicitors, Caesar and Howie. They can offer you legal advice on wills, trusts, Power of Attorney and guardianship.
