Focus SWW Autumn 2018 | Page 4

A letter from the Marketing Director Dear Readers, As the weather turns a little colder and the heating in our homes creeps up we all start to look forward towards Autumn. With it, the darker nights draw in and our thoughts turn to family events like Halloween and Bonfire Night, and dare I say it, Christmas. I read recently that the most popular week for babies being born also falls in late September and if this is to be the same for you, then congratulations. The introduction of a new family member is a happy time and one to be remembered. It also marks a life event that should encourage you to consider writing a Will or may prompt you to change yours to keep it up to date. We’ve included an article in this month’s E-Mag about guardianship. If you haven’t yet written a Will or done any estate planning then this month’s Focus SWW is perfect. We’ve got a really in depth article to help you make some key decisions. 2 The Society of Will Writers One of the most important decisions is choosing who to engage to help you. Our advice is to appoint a member of the SWW and to avoid anyone who doesn’t choose to come under our self-regulatory framework. If you have any questions about this then you’re welcome to speak to a member of our friendly team. Otherwise we wish you all the best for the coming months. Until the next issue. Best Wishes, Tom Stansfield Marketing Director The Society of Will Writers and Estate Planning Practitioners
