Leaving a gift in your will is a way of ensuring that The Boys’ Brigade continues to make a real difference in the lives of children and young people for generations to come.
Under present legislation when more than 10% of a gross estate is left to charitable causes the balance of the estate is subject to a preferable rate of inheritance tax.
If you already have a will and wish to make a simple amendment, such as leaving a gift to The Boys’ Brigade, you can make a codicil. There is no limit to how many codicils you add, but a codicil is only suitable for straightforward alterations. The codicil form needs to be signed and witnessed in the same way as your will. The form must then be kept in a safe place with your will.
