Free Will-writing offers
Janet had been putting off writing her Will, like many of us do. With help from the Macular Society and our trusted partners, she discovered it didn’t have to be complicated or expensive. Like Janet, you can write or update your Will for free – in a way that suits you.
“I had a very good experience with the free Wills service. It was all made easy for me. I’m really pleased with the service I received.”
Janet, Macular Society member
Free Wills via a local solicitor
National Free Wills Network
Our membership of the National Free Wills Network means we can offer a simple single Will or mirror Wills for free.

To register your interest, simply complete the registration form below and we’ll arrange for your free Will pack to be sent to you, complete with a list of participating local solicitors.

Free Wills with a home visit
The Goodwill Partnership
The Goodwill Partnership offers a free Will service, starting with a home visit to take your instructions. Your Will is then drafted, reviewed by a solicitor, and posted to you for approval, signing, and witnessing. Home visits are available in England and Wales.
To make your Will through Goodwill please contact our gifts in Wills team, or click the link below.
