Who will be writing my will?

This will writing service is provided throughout by Co-op Legal Services. We act entirely on your behalf and any advice we give is completely independent and impartial.

Do I have to leave Diabetes UK a gift to use the service?

Diabetes UK hope that when you use their service, you will consider leaving a gift in your will to them. Many charity supporters who use the free wills scheme choose to leave a charitable gift in their will.

Is any will free?

Standard single and mirror wills are free using the Diabetes UK free will service. However your circumstances might mean you need a different type of will which could incur a cost. We'll discuss this with you. You do not have to pay anything until you’ve spoken to us.

So easy to input the details via the internet. Telephone appointment on time. Everything was clearly explained and we weren't rushed.
