LegacyHelp: Making Legacy Planning Simpler for UK Families

Planning for what happens when we're no longer around isn't something most of us particularly enjoy thinking about. But with modern life becoming increasingly complicated, leaving things organised could make a huge difference to the people we leave behind.

According to the Law Society's 2025 research, just 37% of UK adults have a will. And even among those who do, 29% haven't told anyone where it can be found.

But the problem goes far beyond the will.

Think about your own life. You might have several bank accounts, pensions from different employers, savings and investments, insurance policies, household bills, online subscriptions, digital accounts and important documents. Trying to identify and deal with all of these after someone has died can become a huge administrative task for their family.

Enter LegacyHelp: legacy planning made simpler

LegacyHelp is a new UK web service designed to make organising your legacy simpler.

The website has been designed with simplicity in mind, avoiding the intimidating feel that can sometimes come with subjects such as wills, estates and end-of-life planning. Its clean, straightforward approach makes it easier to start thinking about the information that matters and get it organised in one place.

LegacyHelp covers more than simply your will. It helps users think about their estate, assets, important documents and end-of-life wishes, bringing together the information that could be invaluable to family members in the future.

And that's really the strength of the idea.

Rather than leaving loved ones to search through paperwork, emails, drawers, files and online accounts trying to work out what exists and where it is, LegacyHelp encourages you to do some of that organising now, while you can.

A modern approach to an age-old problem

Our financial and personal lives have changed dramatically. A person may have accumulated pensions from several employers, savings across different banks, multiple insurance policies and countless digital subscriptions and accounts.

Yet the way we record and pass on this information hasn't necessarily kept up.

LegacyHelp provides a modern, digital approach to legacy organisation and estate planning, giving people an opportunity to take control of their information and make things easier for those they leave behind.

It's not about being morbid. It's about being organised.

And perhaps most importantly, it's about doing something today that could save your family time, stress and uncertainty in the future.

If you've been meaning to get your affairs organised, LegacyHelp is well worth a look.
