DO YOU NEED TO<br />
WRITE YOUR WILL?<br />
Is there a Wills<br />
Campaign in 2017?<br />
Following last year's<br />
success when many<br />
hundreds of older people<br />
took advantage and many<br />
pledges were received, the<br />
answer is emphatically YES!<br />
If you are an older person,<br />
you can change your Will<br />
or have a new Will drawn<br />
up for just £35 + VAT at<br />
an independent local<br />
solicitor through our Will<br />
Writing Promotion from<br />
1st September to the 31st<br />
October 2017. Just call us<br />
on 0116 299 2233 for more<br />
details. Spread the word!<br />
Once family and friends are remembered in your<br />
Will, is there anyone else you could help?<br />
Grandparents' day<br />
This October we will<br />
be running our popular<br />
Grandparents' Day<br />
activity again.<br />
This is an opportunity for<br />
primary school pupils<br />
to think about how<br />
important their grandparents'<br />
are to them and to get involved<br />
in school-based fundraising<br />
for our charity. Schools<br />
can also get involved in a<br />
competition in which a pupil<br />
could win 4 tickets to take<br />
their grandparents to see<br />
Beauty and the Beast at De<br />
Montfort Hall in December.<br />
So why not let your grandchildren – or great grandchildren –<br />
know about this activity and they could be taking you to the<br />
theatre! Teachers should get in touch with us on 0116 299 2233<br />
or fundraising@ageukleics.org.uk for more information and<br />
to sign up for the competition and fundraising.<br />
