Please
consider making a little space in your will for your
local in-patient hospice after making provision for
family or friends.
Why
is a gift important to the trust?
The
specialist care we are to offer will help many patients
facing a life-limiting illness and will give vital
support to their families or loved ones. As a
priority we will provide hospice beds, which are
currently not provided in south east Lincolnshire. You
may already be aware how marvellously supportive in
patient hospice care can be and how it's absence can
make an already difficult situation more unbearable.
Treatment
is free to all patients: however, special care of this
kind is very costly. Through leaving a gift to the
Butterfly Hospice Trust in your will you could make a
long-term impact on the care and services we provide for
our patients, their families and loved ones.

What
type of gift can I leave?
Pecuniary
Legacy: this is the gift of a
specific sum of money. The beneficiary will
receive precisely the sum you specify. It
can, however, be indexed to rise with the cost
of living over time. Your solicitor will
advise you precisely how this can be done. Specific
Legacy: this a specific item or items
from your estate, e.g. valuable or property etc. Residual
Legacy: this is a gift from the amount left
when:-
-
all
the pecuniary legacies and other gifts have
been made
-
the
expenses of administering the estate have been
deducted
-
and
any inheritance tax that is liable has been
paid
By
making a charitable gift in your will it is even
possible to reduce the amount of inheritance tax
payable - as all gifts to charity are tax-free.

CHOOSE
A SOLICITOR
You
could write your own will but it is MUCH better
and safer to go to
a solicitor and obtain reliable, professional advice. A solicitor will also
be able to explain the tax implications
of what you would like to do.
Every
gift in a will makes a difference whether it is for £5
or £5 million.
