Half of UK adults over 30 lack a will

Many adults in the UK, particularly those over 30, lack a will, with estimates showing that up to 50% do not have one. This raises concerns about the distribution of estates after death. The cost of creating a will ranges from £150 to £500, depending on its complexity. A free will service is available during Free Wills Month in March and October, aimed at those aged 55 and older. This March, several areas across the UK are participating in the free will initiative, including major cities like London, Birmingham, and Glasgow. Participants are encouraged to leave a charitable bequest, but it is not mandatory.
