England and Wales simple wills only — a downloaded PDF is not a valid will until it is correctly printed, signed and witnessed.
A straightforward will, without the fuss

Where there’s a Will, there’s a way.

A personalised simple-will document that becomes legally effective only when correctly printed, signed and witnessed. Answer a few plain-English questions to prepare the document. Your will answers remain in this browser and are not transmitted to Science of Cambridge Ltd.

Start my will

First, is this service suitable?

This version is intentionally limited to uncomplicated estates in England and Wales.

Stop and use a regulated solicitor instead if the person making the will may lack mental capacity, is under pressure or undue influence, cannot read and understand the document, has significant sight or literacy difficulties, needs another person to sign for them, or has any doubt about the effect of the will.
This generator is not suitable for Scottish or Northern Irish wills; overseas assets or domicile; business, partnership or farming interests; trusts; inheritance-tax planning; jointly owned property requiring advice; blended or disputed families; excluding a spouse, civil partner, child or dependant; vulnerable beneficiaries; gifts dependent on complicated conditions; mutual wills; existing contractual promises about inheritance; or any likely claim against the estate.

About you

Use your full legal name and current home address.

Leave blank if not applicable.

Choose your executors

Executors administer your estate. Two are usually sensible, although one can act.

Ask each proposed executor whether they are willing to act. Use a current address where possible. This simplified version does not create detailed professional-executor charging clauses or a full substitute-executor hierarchy.

Specific gifts

You may leave fixed sums or particular possessions before the rest of the estate is distributed.

Avoid describing a gift vaguely. A beneficiary should not witness the will, and neither should the beneficiary’s spouse or civil partner.

Who receives the rest?

The “residue” is everything left after debts, expenses and specific gifts.

A beneficiary must survive you by this period to inherit under the residue clause. This simplified version does not automatically redirect a deceased beneficiary’s share to their children; obtain advice if that is what you want.

Children and funeral wishes

Funeral wishes are expressions of preference and are not normally legally binding.

Specialist advice is recommended where parental responsibility or family arrangements are complicated.

Review your answers

Check names, addresses, gifts and percentages carefully before paying.

When to obtain legal advice

Use a regulated solicitor rather than this service if you own foreign property, have a business or farm, expect an inheritance dispute, want to exclude a dependant, have a blended family, need a trust, face inheritance-tax issues, lack capacity, are vulnerable to pressure, or are domiciled outside England and Wales.

Terms of service

Provider. This service is supplied by Science of Cambridge Limited, company number 17183859, registered office 71–75 Shelton Street, Covent Garden, London, WC2H 9JQ.

Product. For £10, the customer receives automated access to a personalised simple-will document generated from information the customer enters. The product does not include a solicitor’s review, tax advice, identity verification, capacity assessment, execution supervision, storage of the signed original, probate work or continuing legal representation.

No automatic validity. The PDF is not automatically a valid or legally effective will. The customer must print and execute it in accordance with the signing and witnessing instructions. Science of Cambridge Limited cannot observe or verify execution.

Customer responsibility. The customer is responsible for entering complete and accurate names, addresses, gifts, shares and other information; deciding that the simplified product is appropriate; checking the document before signing; using suitable witnesses; safeguarding the signed original; and obtaining professional advice where circumstances are not straightforward.

Immediate digital supply. The customer expressly requests supply before the end of the normal cancellation period and acknowledges that the right to cancel is lost once access to the personalised digital document begins. Statutory remedies for faulty, misdescribed or non-conforming digital content remain unaffected.

Fair limitation. Nothing in these terms excludes liability that cannot legally be excluded, including liability for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or limits mandatory consumer rights. Subject to those rights, Science of Cambridge Limited is not responsible for loss caused by inaccurate answers, failure to follow execution instructions, later changes in circumstances, loss or alteration of the signed original, or use of the product outside its stated scope.

Complaints. Complaints should be sent to the customer-support email shown in the footer. The customer-support email shown in the footer should be monitored regularly.

Law. These terms are governed by the law of England and Wales. Consumers retain any mandatory right to bring proceedings in another applicable UK court.

Privacy notice

Controller. Science of Cambridge Limited, company number 17183859, registered office 71–75 Shelton Street, Covent Garden, London, WC2H 9JQ.

How your information is handled. Answers used to generate the will are stored locally in the customer’s browser using localStorage. They are not intentionally sent to Science of Cambridge Limited. Stripe separately processes payment information under Stripe’s own privacy terms.

Information we may receive. Science of Cambridge Limited may receive customer contact details, payment status, transaction identifiers, correspondence, technical/security logs and complaint records through its payment and support systems. Do not configure analytics, session replay or advertising scripts to capture the contents of the will questionnaire.

Purposes and lawful bases. Information may be used to perform the customer contract, verify payment, deliver access, provide support, prevent fraud, maintain security, keep legally required financial records and handle complaints. The applicable bases will normally be contract, legal obligation and legitimate interests. This privacy notice should be kept under review whenever the service architecture changes.

Retention and sharing. Personal information will be retained only for as long as reasonably necessary for payment records, support, security, legal obligations and complaint handling. Payment and technical data may be shared with Stripe, hosting, email, security, accounting and professional-adviser providers only where needed. Will answers should remain on-device unless the customer clearly chooses another arrangement.

Rights. Individuals may have rights of access, correction, deletion, restriction, objection and data portability, subject to legal limits. They may complain to Science of Cambridge Limited and to the Information Commissioner’s Office.
