Yes. A will is valid as long as it is made of sound mind. It sould be witnessed by at least one other person (often two) and it must declare that all other wills and testaments are invalid. Wills have been found to be valid if written by the person who is dying or soon will die and witnessed by no-one. A court once found a will to be valid by a man who was about to die and simply wrote on a piece of paper "All to mum".
