We are\u00a0showing our support for \u2018Remember a Charity in your Will Week\u2019 from Monday 7th<\/sup>\u00a0to Sunday 13th<\/sup> September 2015.<\/p>\n

The week, organised by Remember A Charity, aims to increase awareness of the importance of charitable legacies, and encourage more people to think about including a good cause in their Will, after they have looked after family and friends. As a campaign supporter Wrigley Claydon is encouraging its clients to name a cause close to their hearts as a beneficiary of their Will.<\/p>\n

As part of the national Remember A Charity Week 2015 campaign, six pensioners have already pledged their support and signed their Wills at 10’000ft, while skydiving alongside a solicitor.<\/p>\n

Rachel Damianou, Partner and head of Trusts, Wills and Probate at Wrigley Claydon commented, \u201cOnly a small proportion of us set our affairs in order with a properly arranged Will. Costing surprisingly little, a Will gives you the peace of mind that your loved ones will be provided for.\u00a0It also gives you the opportunity to leave a lasting legacy. Legacies are the foundation of many good causes in the UK and you don\u2019t need to leave a lot to charity to make a substantial difference.”<\/p>\n

74% of the UK population supports charities and when asked almost half of those people say they would be happy to leave a charitable gift in their will once family and friends are provided for.\u00a0The problem is that very few actually do. If just four percent more of us did, it would generate an extra \u00a31 billion for UK charities every year.<\/p>\n

Rob Cope, director of Remember A Charity added, “Gifts in Wills are the foundation of many of Britain’s charities, creating more than \u00a32 billion for the provision of critical services each year. We hope Remember a Charity Week 2015 will reach our biggest audience to date thanks to the support of Government bodies, charities and solicitors.”<\/p>\n
