Springtime is Red Cross Wills for Life time and Red Cross is now conducting Community Wills Events in towns and cities right across the country and online.
Red Cross and local solicitors have teamed up to help people prepare or update simple Wills in dozens of local halls and community centres.
We are also giving everyone the opportunity to make or update their Will through the Internet.
The Red Cross Wills for Life campaign is a good opportunity to update or make a new Will and to get your personal affairs in order before the end of the year.
Leaving a gift in your Will can also be a valuable and lasting way to support Red Cross.
It costs nothing during your lifetime, but gifts in Wills have a powerful impact for generations tocome.
Just one, two, or five per cent or more of your estate can make a huge difference to our work.
