Will Writing Week is 22nd – 26th April this year, and we are delighted to have teamed up with Will Writers Gavin Ball, Tracey Wright and Carol Bollard to offer our supporters the opportunity to make a Will in return for a donation to the Rescue Centre.
Appointments will be available in Plymouth, Ottery St Mary, Paignton and at our Rescue Centre in Ipplepen, and some home visit appointments can also be made.
The suggested donation is £100 for a standard single Will or £150 for a pair of mirror Wills, which are ideal for couples.

Pet Guardian Scheme
When considering your Will, it’s also a good time to put in place any arrangements for your beloved pets. The Pet Guardian Scheme is a completely free service provided by Animals in Distress. It aims to give you peace of mind that, in the event of your death, we will take your pet(s) in, care for them and find them a loving home.
It’s very easy to register with the scheme and ensure that your pet, whether it is a dog, cat, rabbit or guinea pig, is cared for when you are no longer around to do so.
