Why make a Will?
If you don't have a Will, the law will dictate what happens to your money and belongings. Making a Will gives you and your loved ones peace of mind, and it gives you the chance to leave a legacy to War on Want.
You are in control
Making a Will is usually straightforward, low cost and puts you in control of what happens to your money and belongings. A Will can prevent arguments or confusion about your wishes, and help to reduce legal bills. It also enables you to continue to support War on Want after your lifetime.
Easy to change
It is important to make a Will even if you think your circumstances may change in the future. It's especially important to make a Will if:
- your marital situation changes
- you have a baby or grandchild
- you inherit money or possessions
You can update or add to your Will at any time - each change is known as a Codicil. Even if you already have a Will, by adding a Codicil you can still leave a legacy to War on Want.
