Gift Day
Saturday 18th November
The vicar and churchwardens will be at All Saints’ between 10am and 3pm to receive your donations.  Every gift, however small, is deeply appreciated.
Refreshments will be available.
 
November is Will Aid month—have you got an up to date will?
Will Aid is a special partnership between the legal profession and nine of the UK’s best-loved charities. Every November, participating solicitors waive their fee for writing a basic Will.
Instead, they invite clients to make a voluntary donation to Will Aid – they suggest £95 for a single basic Will and £150 for a pair of basic ‘mirror’ Wills.
 With Will Aid, everyone benefits. You get a professionally drawn-up Will and peace of mind, while the charities receive much-needed donations for their vital work.
For more information or to find a local participating solicitor go to www.willaid.org.uk
