Make Your Will Fortnight (22nd May – 4th June) is back! Peacock & Co is once again delighted to support St Raphael’s Hospice in its annual fundraising fortnight, by offering our will-writing service. Instead of charging our usual fee, we instead invite you to make a donation towards St Raphael’s work, providing invaluable end-of-life care and support within Merton and Sutton.

Despite rising costs, St Raphael’s cares for over 1,000 patients and their families every year without charge, offering home-based and hospice care, wellbeing and bereavement support. The hospice costs over £6 million a year to run, so your help now is valued more than ever.

Can you help us raise over £1,000 for this wonderful cause? Peacock & Co have long supported Make Your Will Fortnight, and with your help we hope to raise a valuable sum for St Raphael’s contribution to our community.

Do you have a will in place? Have you got married, divorced, had children or grandchildren? There are many reasons to make or update your will – we detail just some of them here. Importantly, without a will, your estate may not pass automatically to those whom you intend.

Making a will need not be stressful; we will talk you through the process, and with the aid of an easy-to-use questionnaire, can help you prepare for our meeting without feeling overwhelmed. As well as offering practical guidance, a solicitor’s advice can help save money in the future.

We will be offering our services from both our Wimbledon and Epsom offices, or via a video meeting if preferred. This is a wonderful opportunity to prepare or amend your will and gain peace of mind in aid of a great cause. However, slots are limited, so please contact our Private Client team to make your appointment on 020 8944 5290.

St Raphael’s Hospice, Registered Charity No. 1182636
