answer storage questions, what the
return costs are on the death of the
testator and where the documents are
held.
In the past the SWW have rescued
Will banks from defunct companies
and in doing so have seen the reality
of where some documents have been
stored. A terrible, but true example we
have seen was when we collected
a small Will bank from a downstairs
toilet. Firstly if you’re paying for storage
you would presumably never pay to
have your Will stored in a downstairs
toilet which could be at risk of flooding
and probably lacks relevant fire safety
standards.
In over thirty years we have
rescued and treated many
thousands of swans.
Entirely funded by donations Swan
Lifeline rescues and treats sick and
injured swans.
Working with an SWW member who
chooses to store with The National
Will Archive means your documents
will be in our safe custody. We have
a dedicated team on hand to answer
any questions and can help executors
retrieve documents very easily when
the time comes.
Remember, free may not always be
better and rarely do you ever get
something for nothing.
Much of the work is carried out by
volunteers and we rely on legacies
for our continued funding.
