Hi Sanita, I just wanted to reiterate that Muchloved is a charity as well as yourselves and we do NOT charge our charity partners for our service. Our aim is...

Hi everyone, We are considering producing a codicil form that we can send to supporters on request. For those of you that already use them, do you have any...

I would love them to work better than they do - given our audience are pretty good at having wills, codicils should be a good way to drive action.
I'm with...
Let's be clear: the ojective is to get prospects to take action. Whether they take the BEST action is up to their solicitor/adviser but at least ACTION is...
I agree 100% with Richard. Better to take the small risk and get people to make a move rather than put it off because it is an effort or as I hear too often a...

Three points you missed Michael. 1) Never directly or indirectly would I ask people to vote for me – in fact the opposite. I detest everything these "polls"...
