A CUT price will service is being offered to people who pledge a bequest to the Church.

Thomas Hoyle, diocesan registrar for the Church of England in Lancashire, will prepare any such will for £20 plus VAT. His service is launched this week to coincide with national Make a Will Week.

He said: "There is a passage in the Book of Common Prayer urging Christians to organise their financial affairs in order to focus on more spiritual things."

For further details ring Mr Hoyle on 01254 52821.
