Wills and Legacies

Having a valid and up-to date Will is important.

It’s your way of ensuring the people you love and the causes that matter most to you are looked after in the way you choose when you are gone.

It also makes it easier on your friends and family as they take care of your estate, as they can be sure they are acting on your wishes which are clearly specified

Leaving a gift in your Will to charity is one of the most impactful ways you can leave a lasting and meaningful contribution that your loved ones and future generations will be grateful for.

Making a gift while you are still alive is another option you may wish to consider. For some people, they choose to do this in honour of a loved one.

By giving your gift to charity in this way you are able to see first-hand the positive impact you are having on people impacted by a life-limiting illness.

There may also be a tax benefit for you; it is important to discuss this with your financial advisor or accountant.
