What do Shakespeare, Pringles and Sidmouth have in common? They all featured on our social feeds last week as we promoted Write A Will Week. An amazing 58% of UK adults are never going to die, or so they seem to think - our latest research has found that this is the number who still haven't made a will!

Did you spot some of our shocking statistics? 

  • Residents of Brighton are least likely to have made a will (70% haven't)
  • Plymouth is the most prepared town in the UK where 50% have written a will
  • One in five think they are not wealthy enough to need a will - despite many being homeowners!

It's not too late to join in! You can help to spread awareness by sharing our Write a Will Week findings with your clients.

As part of Good Money Week, Rebecca O'Connor explains how the landscape is changing.

What do you think are the biggest risks of pension freedom?
