Last chance to take part in our Summer Raffle October 2022 is Free Wills Month but did you know that you can make your Will for free through Coeliac UK? We are part of the National Free Wills Network, which provides access to a convenient, local base of solicitors in your area whom you can choose from to prepare your free Will. Gifts in Wills are a wonderful way to support Coeliac UK and to make a lasting difference for others like you, just like Julie did earlier this year: “I had intended to make a Will, it’s one of those things you never really get round to doing. I decided to take advantage of the Free Wills offer and had no issue with leaving a gift as back when I was diagnosed there was not as much awareness of coeliac disease as there is now. Coeliac UK was invaluable in giving me plenty of information on how to get started on a gluten free diet.” Julie, Member since 1999 Any planned gift you would like to leave, no matter what size, will be instrumental in helping us secure Coeliac UK’s future. Funding we receive through planned gifts allows us to keep our helpline services running, improve our support networks across the UK, fight to increase rates of diagnosis in children and adults and further push forward research.
