Gifts in Wills

Leave a lasting legacy by including Fair Frome in your will. A gift in your will is one of the most meaningful ways to support our vital work, providing hope and security for vulnerable people and families in our community for generations to come. By remembering Fair Frome, your generosity turns compassion into action, ensuring our support continues now and into the future.

What are Gifts in Wills?

A gift in a will (also called a legacy) is a special donation left to a person or charity after all other commitments, such as family and debts, have been taken care of. Gifts can include a specific amount of money, a particular possession, or a share of the estate. Leaving a gift to charity does not affect the care of loved ones, and even a small gift can make a big difference.

Why Leave a Gift to Fair Frome?

  • Support the most disadvantaged children, families, and adults in Frome now and for generations to come.
  • Help us provide essentials like food, baby supplies, and hardship support.
  • Create a lasting impact and be remembered for your kindness to your community.
  • Charitable gifts in wills are exempt from inheritance tax, and if 10% or more of your estate is left to charity, the inheritance tax rate may be reduced from 40% to 36%.

How Do Gifts in Wills Work?

Including Fair Frome in your will is simple. Gifts can take different forms:

  • Pecuniary gifts: a specific sum of money
  • Residuary gifts: a share or the remainder of your estate after other gifts have been made
  • Specific gifts: an asset like property or possessions

To ensure your wishes are carried out, speak to your solicitor or will-writer and specify Fair Frome as your chosen charity. You can update your will at any time to include a gift to us.
