Leaving a gift in your Will
Once you have provided for your loved ones, you may want to consider leaving a gift to a cause that is important to you. By having an up-to-date Will, you can ensure your wishes are carried out. This also helps your loved ones, meaning they don’t have to make difficult decisions on your behalf.
“I’ve left a gift to Cancer Support Scotland in my Will. I can never repay them for the help and support I was given, but I can help ensure they are there for many years to come.” Morag
Types of gifts
There are many ways to remember us in your Will, here’s a few types of gifts you can leave:
- Residuary gift: This is a percentage of your estate once other gifts, debts and expenses have been settled. This is the simplest type of gift, and it holds its value.
- Pecuniary gift: This is a fixed sum of money chosen by you.
- Specific gift: This includes, but is not limited to, items such as stocks, property, art and jewellery.
