Legacy & Tributes
There are a number of options when it
comes to making a Will, however, you should always consult a professional due
to the complexities that can be associated with ambiguity and/or just basic
confusion for those left behind if you attempt to do it yourself.
Horse 4 Life as is the case with so many other charities, do not get any government funding and therefore public donations, legacies and
tributes are the financial life blood to ensure ongoing support is always available in
times of need and crisis.
Horse 4 Life focuses on equine welfare support and desperately needs financial support in all forms to sustain
ongoing development to benefit our wonderful equine friends and the ongoing good work.
Why is having a will important?
Having an up to date Will is the only way to ensure
that your family, friends and the causes you believe in are provided for in the
way you wish after you die.
It is therefore vital to have a will
for the
following reasons.
• If you pass on without making a valid Will you
are said to die
intestate. Your possessions will be distributed according
to strict
intestacy rules not necessarily how you would wish
them to be.
• If you are not married or in a civil partnership,
your partner will
not automatically inherit your estate if
you do not have a valid
Will.
• If you have dependent children, but do not have a
valid Will then
you will have no control over who looks after
them, should
anything happen to you.
Why is it important your will is up to date?
Once you have a Will, it’s important to keep it up
to date as major changes to your marital, family or financial circumstances and / or lifestyle and subsequent wishes
should be reflected in your Will.
Use a solicitor
You can find a solicitor in your area
through the Law Society. The Law Society provides independent
advice on topics such as choosing a solicitor.
The cost of using a solicitor
varies depending on how complicated your Will is and where in the country you
live.
The solicitor should make it clear from
the start how much they will charge.
