It's easy! You just need to decide whether you want to leave a fixed amount; a percentage of your estate; or the remains of your estate after you have left legacies to friends or relatives; and specify it in your will.

How can I get help to create a will?

Charity Choice (www.charitychoice.co.uk/willbequest.htm) will create your will on line for as little as £29.95, which includes a donation to your favourite charity.

The Will Aid campaign www.willaid.org.uk is run by nine well known charities and solicitors firms throughout the UK. It offers you the opportunity to have your will drawn up by a professional solicitor but instead of paying for their usual fee, you will be asked to make a donation which will be shared amongst the nine charities. You could include a legacy for a charity of your choice in the will that is drawn up for you.
