Gift in Wills FAQ
Creating your Will for the first time, we recommend that you consult with a solicitor who is experienced in Wills and Estates. However, you may choose to draft your own Will using an online will provider such as Safewill.

Anyone can leave a gift in their Will. Every gift, be it large or small makes a huge impact, ensuring our research, cancer prevention programs, and support services for people affected by cancer can continue well into the future.
Although some people draft their own Wills using kits online or bought from a news agency or post office, we strongly suggest that you talk to an expert and a solicitor who can help you draft a Will.
There are certain requirements for a will to be valid and using a solicitor will make sure you get it right. Solicitors charge different amounts to draft wills. Don’t be shy – shop around to make sure you get the best deal.
