Barnsley Hospice raises money through a number of fundraising initiatives, such as events, appeals and grants for example. An additional but very important income stream is from supporters leaving a gift in their Will.
Despite it not being a subject we often talk about, there are many good reasons why you should make a Will. It gives you peace of mind that you have provided adequate provision for your family and friends and the knowledge that your wishes will be carried out.
Naturally the interests of close relatives come first when you are making your Will but when you have provided for them, it is worth considering making a gift to charity. Not only can the gift help reduce Inheritance Tax liability; it is also a wonderful opportunity to help others.
