CHARITY BEGINS AT HOME
Helping the poor and vulnerable in the UK and around the world is an ongoing affair which is why ABD supported the event “Will Aid” which took place in the month of November 2012. Will Aid was founded in 1988 and is still going strong!
Will Aid is the UK’s leading charity and Will-writing scheme which offers everybody an opportunity to update or make a Will and enables countless lives to be improved.
This charitable event took place for one month only with the support of ABD’s Probate team; Catherine Cole, Nicola Hibbert, Naomi Hill, Lynnette Hilliard and Simon Lofthouse donating their professional legal skills and time to draw up Wills for clients FREE OF CHARGE. In return for this service, the clients made their donations to Will Aid whilst at the same time supporting the UK’s nine favourite charities.
The nine charities involved who will share the benefits include; ActionAid, AgeUk, British Red Cross, Christian Aid, NSPCC, Save the Children, Sightsavers, SCIAF (Scotland) and Trocaire (Northern Ireland).
WHAT A BRILLIANT ACHIEVEMENT
Well done Team! The amount raised so far is a fantastic sum of £5,295 with MORE donations still coming in! These proceeds will be sent to Will Aid to join a nationwide total and then put to work to help those that really need it.
