If you're based in England and Wales, you can write your Will online with Farewill’s free Will writing service. This option is ideal if you’d like to write your Will at your own pace. Simply set up an account and answer a series of questions that explain how to write a Will.

When you submit your Will, it’s checked by Will experts. Once approved, you'll need to print and sign it alongside two witnesses, before safely storing it.

Available across the UK, The National Free Wills Network (NFWN) offers a free Will writing service that connects you with a local solicitor. Once you register for a solicitor visit, NFWN will post you a Will writing pack. Some solicitor offices will offer virtual as well as in-person meetings, giving you flexibility over how and where you complete your Will writing.

The Good Will Partnership (TGP) is available in England and Wales. TGP offer a supportive, free Will writing service for those who would prefer help in person. After you register for a home visit, you’ll get a call from a TGP team member. During the visit, a trained specialist will take your Will instructions.

For the telephone service, you can book a 15-minute call with one of Farewill's Will writing specialists. This Will writing service is available for people living in England and Wales and is designed to make writing a Will simple and accessible.

After your Will has been written or updated, it needs to be signed and witnessed for it to be legally valid.

It then needs to be stored safely, either through solicitors or at home. A note of where it is stored needs to be easily accessible for the executors so they can find the original Will when the time comes.

It's then good practice to review the Will every few years to ensure it still reflects your wishes.
