Legacies - How To Leave A Gift To Our Charity
Making a Will is an important way of looking after the future of your family and friends. After you’ve taken care of loved ones, you may wish to leave a gift in your Will to a favourite charity, hopefully The Friends Of The Keep Archive. By remembering us in this way, you’re ensuring that our work lives on.
The donation can be as small or large as you like. If you choose to leave a gift to The Friends Of The Keep Archive make a note of our charity name, address and Registered Charity number 1159372 and to give to your professional advisor when writing a Will. Alternatively, share with them this direct link to the FoTKA listing Charity's Commission. |
If you want to leave a gift to charity but have already made a Will, it’s not a problem. There are a couple of simple ways you can change it.
1. A new Will
The first and probably simplest way is to write a new Will. Once written, it makes any Wills made by that person in the past void. In fact, most Wills will start by reciting that you’re writing a Will and that you’re revoking previous Wills. You can write a new Will with a professional advisor. However, if you do not want to do this, there is another way. It’s called a Codicil.
2. Codicils
A codicil is a document used to change a Will that has already been made. It’s used as a way to make simple additions or amendments to an existing Will like a change in the amount of a gift of money, or the addition of an executor or gift. This is all quite straightforward. You can also make a codicil with a Will-writing advisor.
