Those aged over 50 are being encouraged to make use of free wills surgeries in the town.
Age UK Dorchester will host a surgery in the Age UK shop in West Street, Bridport, on Wednesday, October 16 from 9.30am to 1pm, in partnership with Cordelia English and Tim Wilkes of Nantes Solicitors.
The surgeries allow access to an expert who can answer questions about wills, powers of attorney and other legal aspects of property and finances. These one-to-one surgeries are by appointment only.
Cordelia said: “Nantes Solicitors is absolutely delighted to be working in partnership with Age UK Dorchester.
“We welcome you to make an appointment at our free Bridport advice surgery to discuss the importance of making an up to date will or how to explain how a lasting power of attorney could help give you peace of mind.”
Lisa Holmes, of Age UK Dorchester, said: “We are happy to work with Nantes Solicitors to provide this much needed and valuable service to local older people.
“Issues around making a will or power of attorney can be confusing and being able to talk things through with a solicitor can make all the difference.”
