WBW Solicitors recognised by Cancer Research for legacies
WBW Solicitors has been recognised by Cancer Research UK after facilitating over £2 million worth of gifts in the last ten years from people choosing to support the charity through their Wills.
Catherine Causey of WBW solicitors was presented with a special certificate to acknowledge the support by Ros Fry, South West Legacy Manager for Cancer Research UK. Following the presentation she welcomed supporters at the Cancer Research UK shop in Queen Street, Newton Abbot alongside WBW solicitor Donna Rowland. Supporters were invited to come and say hello and discover how gifts in wills fund life saving research.
WBW has been partnering with Cancer Research UK over the past twelve years and throughout this time it has enabled many people to fulfil their wish of remembering the charity in their Will.
Catherine Causey of WBW said: “WBW Solicitors is really proud to receive this special recognition from Cancer Research UK. It is a truly inspiring charity which has been responsible for many of the key advances that have been made in the fight against cancer over recent decades. And it continues to look ahead, pushing the boundaries of medical science.
“To have played a small part in enabling such progress to happen has been an honour and a privilege for us.”
Cancer Research UK’s Regional Legacy Manager, Ros Fry, added: “Catherine Causey of WBW Solicitors might just tell you that she and her colleagues are only doing their job in helping people to plan their affairs and support the charity of their choice. But it goes far beyond that.
“The firm has become well informed about Cancer Research UK’s work and is very supportive of the progress we are making. Next summer they will be sponsoring the local fundraising group’s annual Summer Ball and we are delighted that two of the committee were able to share this celebration.
"Whenever their clients express a desire to support us, WBW Solicitor’s staff act with great sensitivity as they explain the various options and allow individuals or families to make the right choice in their own good time.
“It’s quite astonishing to think that by simply combining enthusiasm with the highest professional standards, WBW Solicitors has helped secure over £2 million worth of legacy gifts in the last ten years, which will go a long way towards helping our scientists, doctors and nurses bring forward the day when all cancers are cured.”
