Our year-round free Will writing service

Our free Will writing service allows you to write a basic Will for free, as Great Ormond Street Hospital Charity (GOSH Charity) will cover the cost.

You don’t need to leave a gift in your Will to GOSH Charity to use this service, but it’s an incredible way to help save childhood, now and in the future.

If you're based in England and Wales, you can write your Will online with Farewill. Simply set up an account and answer a series of questions, which you can complete in your own time.

When you submit your Will, it is checked by Will experts. Once approved, you'll need to print and sign it alongside two witnesses, before storing it.

Available across the UK, The National Free Wills Network (NFWN) will post you a pack which contains a list of law firms in your area that are signed up for the service. You can then contact the firm of your choice to register with a solicitor who will guide you through their process. Some solicitor offices will offer virtual as well as in-person meetings.

The Good Will Partnership (TGP) is available in England and Wales. You will get a call from a TGP team member to book a convenient time for a home visit, where a trained counsellor will take your Will instructions. Your Will is checked by a panel firm of solicitors who can also provide legal advice and storage of your signed Will.

For the telephone service, you can book a 15-minute call with one of Farewill's Will specialists. This is available for people living in England and Wales.

If you need a Will that has more complexity, you can speak to the free Will provider of your choice and they will let you know what they can offer, and of any extra costs that would apply.
