A REDDITCH law firm has raised £1,350 by taking part in the annual charity Will-writing campaign, Will Aid.
HCB Solicitors has supported Will Aid since 2008, dedicating its time and expertise to writing Wills throughout November and raising a grand total of £12,261.
Instead of charging their usual fees for basic Wills, they invited clients to make a donation to Will Aid – helping to fund vital charity work in the UK and around the world.
The funds raised will support Will Aid’s partner charities, which carry out work across a range of important causes, from providing humanitarian aid to protecting vulnerable children and those facing hardship here in the UK.
Manjinder Kaur Ballagan from the firm, said: “We’re proud to support Will Aid each year – it’s a great opportunity to help our clients plan for the future while also raising funds for incredibly important causes.
“It’s always a real team effort, and everyone gets behind the campaign. Knowing that the work we do during the campaign has a wider impact beyond our day-to-day role makes it especially rewarding.
“The funds raised will go on to support people facing difficult circumstances, both here in the UK and around the world, which makes taking part all the more meaningful.”
Since its launch in 1988, Will Aid has raised more than £26 million in donations, with millions more pledged in charitable legacies thanks to the generosity of participating solicitors.
