Special offer for Wills Month
Momentum Waikato and Tompkins Wake are making it easier to create or update your Will.
We’ve been promoting our free online Will-building tool at tompkinswake.com/create-your-free-will, but your affairs may be too complex to fit the template.
So until the end of September, Tompkins Wake is also offering free 20-minute consultations with a lawyer to help put together your Will.
Just contact Gemma Bodle at gemmabodle@tompkinswake.co.nz to make a time.
Providing for your loved ones is the priority, but you may also wish to leave a bequest to support a charity or your community, and Momentum can make your gift-in-will last forever."

What would you do if it was your job to fix Hamilton's CBD?
More alcohol restrictions, more lighting, busking rule changes and a whole lot of lobbying - these are some ways Hamilton leaders want to sort out the CBD.
Crime and anti-social behaviour in the area has been in the spotlight after recent news of a man defecating in the street near a city pub and another who flipped tables out the back of a bar after being found scrounging cigarette butts and asked to leave.
What would you do if it was your job to fix Hamilton's CBD? Tell us your reasons in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
