Goodwills boost for local charity We Hear You

A scheme whereby local people can make a will and help the local charity We Hear You, at no additional cost to themselves, has yet again been a huge success.

Goodwills Legal Services Ltd is a well-established regulated law firm that has been assisting local families for many years.   Goodwills offers a helpful and professional home visit service to assist people with wills, trusts, lasting powers of attorney, probate, pre-paid funeral plans and a range of other related services.

Goodwills made a substantial donation to the We Hear You charity for every local person who used their service in May and raised £2135.

There was no additional cost to customers who still benefitted from low prices such as only £88 for a standard single will or only £148 for two standard mirror wills for a couple.

Michael Rhodes, Goodwills senior consultant for Bath, Somerset, Wiltshire and the neighbouring areas said, “We offer an individual, caring and professional service to local people and I am delighted that we have been able to support the valuable work of We Hear You.

“Local people were pleased to know they helped such an important local charity whilst also gaining the peace of mind and protection of a professionally drawn up will, trust, lasting power of attorney or a pre-paid funeral plan.”

Helen Sprawson-White, fundraising officer for We Hear You said, “We Hear You provides emotional support to anyone who has been affected by cancer or life-threatening conditions across Bath, Somerset and Wiltshire.  We support children, young people and adults by providing professional counselling in a variety of locations.   

“All our services are free to clients and support from companies such as Goodwills is essential to enable us to have the resources to work with as many people as possible.

“We are delighted that Goodwills raised such an incredible amount of money through this scheme in May, funding over 48 sessions of counselling for local families and we cannot thank them enough for their ongoing support.”

The good news is that whilst the scheme was originally for the month of May, Goodwills will continue to make a donation to the charity for each person who mentions We Hear You when booking their appointment.

Appointments can be booked by calling Michael Rhodes on 01373 593193 or contacting him by email at info@goodwillslocal.co.uk   We Hear You can be contacted at their Frome office on 01373 455255 or by email at info@wehearyou.org.uk
