Title : Marley Solicitors - Making a difference

Two years ago a South Ribble based company diversified from their usual core business, and partnered with a national charity to be able to offer a free service to people of the local area.

Marley Solicitors Ltd, established for over a decade, have been offering legal services in Bamber Bridge where they have been based for over 5 years now. 

The small, all-female law firm, based out of their Station Road branch, entered into partnership with national charity Cancer Research UK in 2021. The idea was to be able to bring a free will-writing service to people of the area.

Within 2 years this partnership has delivered:

  • £283,067 in valuable income for the charity
  • Provided over 120 local people a free professional solicitor written will

Marley Solicitors are a great example of how local businesses can make a positive difference in our community. By offering free professional advice Marley Solicitors have supported residents of South Ribble and shown the benefits Social Value can bring to our Borough.

Having received the certificate and accolade from Cancer Research, the Bamber Bridge law firm pledged to continue offering this service to anyone in the area needing it.

“It’s a great sum of money that will help so many. But there are many other people out there who can benefit from this service, so we look forward to offering even more people the reassurance that having a professional will arranged brings them.”

The Marley Solicitors team also offer a wealth of advice and information on the service via their website at www.marleysolicitors.co.uk, and welcome people to contact them with any questions by phone, email or on any of their active social media platforms.
