October is Free Wills Month, making it a great time to think about putting a will in place and planning for the future.

As a University of Sussex colleague, you can access a free will-writing service through our provider, The Taylor Lucas Partnership. The service is available to all Sussex colleagues and also includes your partner or spouse.

The service can help you put your wishes in writing, including making arrangements for your estate and deciding who you would like to benefit from your will. You’ll receive professional guidance throughout the process, helping you understand your options and make arrangements that are right for you.

Find out more at our free webinars

To help you find out more about the service and how it works, The Taylor Lucas Partnership is hosting two dedicated 30-minute webinars exclusively for Sussex colleagues during October.

Tuesday 13 October, 12:30pm
Wednesday 21 October, 12:30pm

Donna Byrne from The Taylor Lucas Partnership will talk through the free will-writing service, what’s included, how you can access it and what you can expect from the process and there will also be an opportunity to ask questions.

Whether you already have a will and want to review your arrangements, or you’ve never made one before, the webinar is a chance to find out more about this valuable benefit.
