- Wills & ProbateForesters Membership
entitles you to use a discounted Wills & Probate service
provided by Final Duties.
Final Duties was set up by Adam Walker shortly after the death of his father. Having experienced the costs of obtaining probate, as well as solicitors' reluctance to provide accurate fixed fee quotations, Adam saw the need for a service to co-ordinate the activities involved in resolving a deceased person's affairs.
We think you will find Adam's wealth of knowledge on this matter a great support.
You can find further information and post questions about this topic in Adam's Wills & Probate Forum on Foresters Friends. - Convalescent Homes RespiteOur discretionary
convalescent home respite assists Members recuperating after long
or short illnesses by offering a stay in a convalescent home free
of charge for up to two weeks in any two year period.
Foresters Friendly Society supports a convalescent home in Bridlington, Yorkshire which has been used by thousands of Members to rest, recuperate and recover their strength.
