The launch of Single Parent Month
National organisation, The Society of Will Writers, is launching ‘Single Parent Month’ throughout January 2009. Current research has shown that single parents are one of the most likely groups to not have a Will and The Society are keen to change this with an initiative that will hopefully see more single parents having a Will written and improving this drastic statistic.
The Society and its participating members are offering single parents throughout the UK a chance to have their Will written at a greatly reduced cost in the hope that this will make them think about their children’s future and ensure that, should anything happen to them, their children’s’ welfare is assured and that they would be entrusted to the person that they want to care for them, instead of leaving it to chance.
As parents with young children most of us never think about dying but sadly not all parents live long enough to see their children grow up. For parents, a Will is the single most important thing you can do for your children to ensure that guardianship and trusts are put in place should the unthinkable happen before your child is 18. With members throughout the UK The Society is on hand to answer any questions people may have about making a Will.
The initiative will commence on 1st January 2009 and will cease on 31st January 2009. Throughout this period, members will be offering to write a single parent’s Will for a fixed fee of £35 regardless of circumstances. In this time we hope that the number of people who have made a Will will have risen considerably and that we will be well on the way to ensuring that everyone throughout the UK has a valid Will.
