Local law firm Banner Jones is to offer 50% off its Will writing services to all NHS staff as a way of saying thankyou for their ‘tireless efforts’ to help support those across the region affected by the coronavirus outbreak.

The discount, which is available to doctors and nurses, as well as all other NHS workers, comes as pressure on key workers continues to grow; with many being urged to get their affairs in order.

The advice has led to a surge in enquiries for legal service,s including Wills and LPAs (Lasting Power of Attorney), with Banner Jones launching the scheme in order to ’give something back to the local community, and to help those who are providing life-saving care.’

Katie Woodward, Wills Team Leader from Banner Jones, said: “These are truly difficult times for all, but with many NHS workers exposed day after day to the coronavirus we have seen a spike of interest in our Wills and Lasting Power of Attorney writing services.

“We therefore thought it was only appropriate to offer NHS staff a discounted rate to provide what little support we can and to show our gratitude for their tireless efforts to protect our friends and our families.

“We understand that at a time like this, we all need to pull together in order for us all to get through this.”

For NHS staff thinking about putting their affairs in order, the dedicated Wills team can take your instructions over the phone. Call 01246 560 560 or email [email protected] to make an appointment.

To qualify for the discount, staff members will need to provide a copy of their photo ID.
