Hertfordshire solicitor Heckford Norton are offering concessionary prices for their Will-writing service to staff at West Hertfordshire hospitals NHS Trust (WHHT) and their families. The firm, based in Stevenage, Hertfordshire have been established over 100 years and are highly respected.
Like many companies and firms across the county, Heckford Norton are keen to support NHS staff where they can. Significantly reduced prices are being made available to staff at two NHS Trusts, one of which is WHHT.
David Head at Raise, the WHHT hospitals’ charity, said “The concession is valuable because it is truly essential that everyone should have a Will in place, whatever their age … it’s not just something to do when you are old. It’s very easy to keep putting it off and that can, ultimately, cause additional heartache and expense for your family.”
The charity will also receive a small donation from the firm for each Will written by a member of #teamwestherts.
Arrangements for staff
When it comes to writing a Will, Hertfordshire solicitors Heckford Norton offer concessions to NHS staff at both West Hertfordshire Hospitals NHS Trust (WHHT) and East & North Hertfordshire NHS Trust.
Special prices will be applied, simply let Heckford Norton know that you are a staff member or related to a staff member when you contact them and they will make the arrangements.
In addition, the firm will make a donation to Raise – your hospital charity – for every Will completed. Rest assured that although it would obviously be very welcome, you do not have to consider a bequest to Raise to take advantage of the scheme.
What is a Will?
In simple terms, your Will is a set of instructions for what should happen to your possessions and assets when you die. It also allows you to stipulate who will manage your affairs (your executor) and specify plans for your funeral and other arrangements. It is important to take legal advice before writing your Will, which does not need to be expensive.
