Will Aid returns next month

DURING the whole of November many solicitors will be offering to write simple wills for a suggested donation to charity of pounds 35.

This is a spur to everyone to think about making a will or revising an existing will.

If you have any general or specific questions about making your will, getting the wording right, providing for children, safeguarding the family home, or how to arrange your affairs in the most tax-efficient way, write to the Independent on Sunday.

We will publish a selection of the letters in a fortnight's time, together with comments from Gillian Jenkins, a lawyer who runs her own will-writing business.

Letters will be published anonymously using just the author's initials and county. Please include a day-time telephone number where possible in case of queries.

Neither the Independent on Sunday nor Gillian Jenkins can enter into further discussions on letters.

Write to: Personal Finance (Wills), The Independent, 40 City Road, London EC1Y 2DB.

Please do not send SAEs or original documents as we cannot guarantee to deal with every letter personally.
