Leaving a legacy

Leaving a legacy to North Warwickshire Citizens Advice Bureau

North Warwickshire Citizens Advice Bureau is a charity - that's why we need your support. As an independent charitiy, we rely on the support of members of the public - people like you. By adding us to your will, you can help secure not just our future, but the future of your community.

Making or changing a will is easy - but we do recommend you use a solicitor. Every adult should have a will, regardless of their age, income or wealth - it is the only way of ensuring your wishes are met after your death. Yet 1 in 5 people in the UK die without one, potentially causing unnecessary complications for their loved ones at a difficult time.

Gifts left to charities in Wills - usually known as legacies - don't need to be large, and they don't prevent you from taking care of your family and loved ones. In fact, a legacy to a charity can ease the burden of Inheritance Tax. As we move into the future, legacies are becoming an increasingly vital form of income for all charities, including Citizens Advice Bureaux. But at present we are not receiving the legacy income we need, because not enough people realise we are charities.

If you have a Will, changing it to include North Warwickshire Citizens Advice Bureau is straightforward. If you don't have a Will, having one written is a lot easier than you think.

If you would like to talk to someone about leaving a legacy to a CAB, please contact your solicitor, or the Bureau Manager .
