Age UK Dorchester is encouraging those over 50 to make the most of its free, regular wills surgeries.

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.

A surgery will take place at the Age UK Dorchester shop on West Street, Bridport, on Wednesday, January 15. It will be in partnership with Nantes Solicitors.

Lisa Holmes, from 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 wit a solicitor can make all the difference.”

To book an appointment, call Age UK Dorchester on 01305 269444. More information can be found at ageuk.org.uk/Dorchester or by calling the charity.
