How you can write or update your Will for free

Choose from one of our free Will services to have an up-to-date professionally written Will at no cost to you.

We have partnered with two free Wills services that allow you to have an expert written Will made at no cost to you.

Whilst there is absolutely no obligation, most people who use these services chose to leave a gift in their Will to Raystede. This very special gift could go towards providing everyday essentials like kitten milk, dog food, toys and treats as well as funding cutting edge veterinary equipment.

Big or small, every gift in a Will makes a difference to the lives of the animals here at Raystede. Together we could make a lasting impact to the lives of animals for generations to come.

Luke's story

This is Luke and his dog Maisie. Luke is one of our newest legacy pledgers, who recently used Bequeathed to write his Will.

"I’ve been going to Raystede since I was a child, so it was a natural choice to include them in my Will. Being my first Will, Raystede clearly laid out some options for me and I chose which one worked best for me. They’ve been on hand to answer any questions I’ve had and made the process really simple.

I would really recommend using the free Wills services to help you create a Will. I thought it was going good be a daunting process but I couldn’t have been more wrong!"
