Discover the simple way to leave a legacy of health with your Will.
Writing your Will is important, no matter your age or your health. It’s estimated around 60% of Aussies don’t have a Will, with many believing they aren’t wealthy enough or old enough to need one. But life is unpredictable, and having a Will helps protect your loved ones from unnecessary stress while ensuring your wishes are honoured.
A Will also gives you the opportunity to leave a lasting impact on the causes you care about. After providing for your loved ones, you might choose to leave a gift in your will to The Hospital Research Foundation Group or a charity within our group that resonates with you. In doing so, you’ll contribute to a healthier future for your family and help reduce the fear and heartbreak of illness for generations to come.
