Morecambe Bay Wills and Estates Community Fund

Willwriting firm launches community fund for grassroots organisations

A north-west based will writing business has launched a new community fund to support grassroots organisations and ‘give back to the communities it serves.’

Morecambe Bay Wills and Estates, which also incorporates North Wales Wills, Kendal Wills and Lancaster Wills, has pledged a share of its annual profits to create a Community Fund worth £7,500. The fund will be divided into 30 donations of £250 each to be be distributed across North Lancashire, South Cumbria and North Wales. Local charities, youth groups, clubs and community projects are encouraged to nominate their cause, helping them continue the vital work they do in supporting people locally.

“We are privileged to work with families across three counties, helping them secure their future. It feels only right that we share some of our success with the very communities who support us. This is our way of saying thank you and making a real difference on the ground. A lot of local organisations are going to benefit — and we couldn’t be prouder of that.”

said Morecambe Bay Wills and Estates Director Nicola Combe who already pledges a proportion of the firm’s profits to charity.

Nominations for a share of the fund will open mid-September with six winners chosen daily w/c 13th October 2025.

“This is about more than one-off donations.”

added Combe.

“We want to embed community profit sharing into how we run our business, year after year. By doing this, we hope to see a ripple effect — more support for local organisations, more opportunities for local people, and stronger, more resilient communities across Lancashire, Cumbria and North Wales.”
