Making a Will doesn’t have to be difficult or expensive and the satisfaction you’ll get from putting your affairs in order will be one of relief. Did you know, if you leave a gift to a charity in your Will, this will be tax free? This means that every cent of your money goes towards helping older people stay connected.
When making a will it is advisable to seek the professional help of a solicitor. For tips on making a will click here
The four different legacy gifts you can make are:
This is a gift of a specified amount of money.
This is a gift of a specific item such as property, jewellery, stocks, shares or other valuables.
This is the remainder of your estate after all other gifts to family and friends have been distributed and all outgoings have been resolved.
This is a gift in which a named person has access to the estate, which only reverts to the charity on the death of that person. For instance, the will states that a friend is allowed to live in your house until their death, when it will revert to the charity.
