Camrass Wills is a small family business which was started by Peter Camrass in 2010. It is now run by Peter and his daughter Lucy Camrass. Peter is based in Maidstone and Lucy in Brighton. Peter has over 30 years’ experience in the financial services industry and 13 years as a professional will writer. The company is a member of the Society of Will Writers which is the largest self-regulatory body within the will writing profession. All members have to carry at least £2m professional indemnity insurance and abide by the Society’s code of practice.
Peter has lived most of his life in Kent. After studying Economics at the University of Kent at Canterbury, he started his career in financial services: mainly working in technical pensions for Scottish Equitable and Clerical Medical. While his four children were growing up, he became very involved with the local Scouts and he "retired" from being a scout leader in 2017. Peter was a school governor for 11 years and has worked extensively with the teaching profession giving advice on pensions and investment. Peter also runs a small table tennis club in Yalding and is a qualified instructor.
Lucy graduated from the University of Brighton with a first class honours degree in International Business. Having helped her father with the Camrass Wills business over the years, she decided after graduating to put both her degree and her knowledge of the family business into practice and set up her own branch of Camrass Wills. Lucy is also a part qualified accountant. In her spare time Lucy also helps out with Scouts and is a keen surfer and stand-up paddle boarder.
In his spare time, Peter runs Yalding Table Tennis Club Yalding Scouts Canoe Club. He is a qualified instructor for both table tennis and canoeing.
