Leamington and Warwickshire law firm Alsters Kelley, have raised £870 after donating their time to draft wills for free, after participating in 'Make a Will Week' for a local charity Myton Hospice  which ran last month.   

Lisa Beale, a paralegal at the Leamington office, said: "Myton Hospice is a charity so important for the people of Warwickshire, doing a wonderful job caring for those who live in this region. Participating in Make a Will Week is a great way of supporting them and we passed on some very generous donations.

Neil Raiseborough, Head of Private Client, commented: "Alsters Kelley is often involved in free will schemes and we have found it to be an effective way of giving back to the local community.

"Most clients who donated for Make a Will Week were surprised to learn that there is rarely such thing as a simple will. We urge everyone to have their wills professionally drawn up to make sure that the will is thorough and  all the finer details have been considered." 

David Pratt, Donor and Supporter Care Manager at Myton Hospice, said: "We are very grateful to Alsters Kelley for giving their time to support of our first Make a Will Week. The £870 raised by them will help us continue to provide vital care for more than 2000 local people each year who are living with a life limiting illness. 

"We run three hospices in Coventry and Warwickshire and need to raise over £6 million each year in voluntary donations. The support of the local business community is essential for us to continue our work."
