Project Summary
The Brief
There is a lot of confusion about wills. Empowering people by giving them more information is key.

A free online will writing service.
Guardian Angel is a tech for good company created to make the experience of losing someone easier. It was founded after our founder Sam lost his Mum suddenly in 2016. He experienced first-hand the chaos caused by the absence of a plan when someone dies. It made one of the toughest times in his life even tougher than it needed to be. Guardian Angel was created to make the experience of loss that little bit easier for those left behind.
One of the ways we do this is through our proactive planning tools, including our online will.
One of the ways we distribute our online wills is via our 200+ charity partners. Gifts in wills make up a significant portion of charities income and our online tool help charities offer a clear call to action in the form of a free will writing service.
In Sep & Oct, 2023 weʼre running a campaign for our charity partners to help them promote legacy giving via gift in wills. We will be testing paid social ads across Facebook, Instagram and TikTok to encourage our charities potential supporters to leave a gift in their will using our online will writing service.
Which is:
- All online (sort-from-the-sofa-friendly)
- Can be completed in ~15 minutes
- Each will is reviewed by legal experts
- Legally binding when printed and signed with a witness
Scene #1
Speak directly to the camera and knock on the camera screen like in the start of this video, https://www.instagram.com/reel/CpQYKLfI67V/?hl=en . In an informative, upbeat and engaging way. Use your hands to count through each of the three tips to make it super clear and simple, like in this video https://www.instagram.com/reel/ClgNT0CN219/?hl=en
Script #1
Knock Knock.
Here are 3 things that you might not know about writing your will - that you definitely should.
- Everyone already has a plan in place for when they die: Even if you don’t have a will, everything you own will be divided according to the “laws of intestacy”. These rules work for some people but one size doesn’t always fit all. If you want to have a say about what happens when you die then a will is the way to do it.
- Even though it’s called your Last Will and Testament it probably won’t be your ‘last will’. A will is a living document. Life changes and wills do too. The government actually recommends people update their will every 5 years or any time you have a major life change. When you write your will online you can easily (and affordably) come back and update it over time.
- You can write your will via Colchester & Ipswich Hospital Charities for free. This Autumn they’ve partnered with expert will writers, Guardian Angel, to help you get your will sorted once and for all. The process is so much easier than you think and you can choose to include a gift to the charity. Will you help them be there through all of life's stages for many years to come? A gift in your will is a thank you that lasts forever. It’s a hugely impactful way to support the causes you love saving you money today.
I have to say I thought writing my own will would be overwhelming, difficult and expensive. If only I’d known. I would have done it sooner!
