Ipswich law firm raises thousands of pounds for Will Aid charity
A property law firm in Suffolk has raised thousands for a national charity, making it one of the top donating firms in the UK.
Attwells Solicitors, based in Ipswich, have taken part in Will Aid, which is the UK’s leading charity will-writing scheme.
It offers people the opportunity to make or update their Will in return for a donation, to help people in need in the UK and all over the world.
As part of the Will Aid campaign, Attwells Solicitors drew up basic wills for local people without charging their usual fee. In return for this service, clients made a donation to Will Aid and Attwells have raised a staggering £4,380 in total.
