October is Free Wills Month

If writing your Will is something you have been meaning to get around to, now is a great opportunity to put your plans in place. If you choose to include a gift to Momentum, you will be helping us continue our work and make a meaningful difference to families for years to come.

Momentum is here for families facing life’s toughest challenges – for as long as they need us. By leaving a gift in your Will, you can help make sure that care and support is there for families in the future, too. Your legacy could help provide counselling, bereavement support, therapy and other vital services for seriously ill children, their parents and siblings across Surrey, Sussex and London.

Angela, from Woking, Surrey, is very kindly leaving a legacy to Momentum. She said: “What really resonated with me about Momentum was how the charity recognises that childhood illness affects the whole family. My hope is that, for years to come, Momentum continues championing that message and supporting every family member. I feel truly humbled knowing that my support will carry on beyond my lifetime, and that my legacy of helping children and young people will continue to have an impact.”

Angela continued: “Writing a will can be expensive, so being able to do it free of charge through Octopus Legacy is fantastic. It is a big decision, and having step-by-step guidance along the way will make the entire process so much easier.”

Making a Will with Octopus Legacy’s free standard Will-writing service is straight forward and you can include a gift to Momentum alongside any other causes you might like to support. Whether you choose to leave a set amount, a percentage of your estate, or whatever feels right for you, every gift helps us be there for families when they need us most. There’s no obligation to leave a gift, and you can change your mind at any time.

Thinking about writing a Will can feel overwhelming, but it doesn’t have to be complicated. We have a straightforward guide to help you feel confident taking the next step. With your support, we can continue to be there for families facing the toughest times.
