Each October, Dove House Hospice runs Make A Will Fortnight in partnership with local solicitors who kindly give their time to help supporters put a Will in place.

Everyone who participates is encouraged to make a suggested donation to Dove House in line with what they would usually expect to pay for a Will.

How it works

  1. Register your interest using the form below.

  2. From June, we’ll send you the Make A Will pack with full details and participating solicitors.

  3. You choose your preferred solicitor and appointment option (subject to availability).

  4. You make a suggested donation to Dove House Hospice in lieu of solicitor fees.

​* Please note: Make A Will is not a free wills scheme. Participating solicitors generously donate their time, and we encourage supporters to make a donation to help fund hospice care.


There are so many reasons why you might want to make a Will:
