A legacy fundraising programme targeted to reach your select audience.
The National Free Wills Network gives you the opportunity to turn your target audience into committed pledgers.
How the Network can help your charity
All current member organisations have access to a comprehensive (and ever expanding) national network of solicitors. With 1,034 law firms currently involved, on average we have a participating solicitor within 3.5 miles of each donor referred.
With the experience of 143,129 Wills written, we know that three-quarters of the Wills include a legacy to the referring organisation. We know this because all of the results are measurable and reported to the charity so they can see their excellent return on investment.

Having that right product at the end is absolutely vital, so I would encourage everybody to consider partnering with the National Free Wills Network.

Many of the people we support are on low incomes, and a lot may be elderly, so this is a great way for them to be able to put their affairs in order with solicitors in their local area.
