Make Your Will Week

Solicitors from Weston-super-Mare, Worle, Clevedon, Congresbury, Winscombe, Cheddar and Burnham-on-Sea donate their time to write Weston Hospicecare supporter’s wills.

In February of each year, local solicitors come together to provide care for local people at the end of their lives.

Those who want to make a will during this time will be asked for a minimum donation for the hospice in exchange for a standard or mirror will.

The suggested donations often represent a generous discount on usual rates so it’s a great opportunity to get your will organised.

When writing your will, please consider leaving a gift to Weston Hospicecare so that we can continue to care for people when you are gone.

Weston Hospicecare is community-led and it is because of gifts in wills that we are able to offer the very best care for your loved ones.

Your gift will help families facing the most difficult of times, bringing them closer together, ensuring everyone can make the most of the time they have left.

It will also mean that those who are alone will have a companion at the end of their life. Someone to hold their hand or just be there. You’ll also be supporting families and friends with their grief.

Your gift, big or small, will provide someone with the care they deserve. It will allow someone to die with dignity in a place of their choosing.
We are dedicated to giving our community the very best end of life care, but we can only do that with your help.

So, if you are able, please remember Weston Hospicecare when writing your will.

If you’d like to know more about including the hospice in your will or would like to visit us to see what a difference gifts in wills are making today, we’d love to hear from you.

Please just get in touch.

To register your interest or for more information, please email carla.bloomfield@westonhospicecare.org.uk or call Carla on 01934 423900.

The next Make Your Will Week will take place in February 2021.

Reclaim Gift Aid

Add 25% more to your donation at no cost to you. A Gift Aid declaration allows Weston Hospicecare to claim tax back on eligible donations. It means that for every £1 you donate to Weston Hospicecare we can claim back 25p, at no extra cost to you.

Yes, I would like to claim Gift Aid

By ticking the "Yes" box, I agree I would like Weston Hospicecare to reclaim the tax on all qualifying donations I have made, as well as any future donations, until I notify them otherwise. I understand that if I pay less Income Tax and/or Capital Gains Tax than the amount of Gift Aid claimed on all my donations in that tax year I may be asked to pay any difference. I understand that Weston Hospicecare will reclaim 25p of tax on every £1 that I give.

What is Gift Aid?

Gift Aid does not cost you a penny more, but can add an additional 25p to every £1 you donate. When Weston Hospicecare receives a donation from a UK taxpayer, we're entitled to claim an amount of tax (calculated at the basic rate of income tax in that year) paid on that donation. Once you have given your permission for us to do this on your behalf, there is no need for you to do anything else.

All that is required is that you must be a taxpayer and that would have paid or will pay sufficient Income and/or Capital Gains Tax to cover all the Gift Aid claimed on all your donations in that tax year. Please note that it is your responsibility to pay any difference.

The amount of tax we claim will be 25% of the total value of your donations in that tax year. Furthermore, if you are a higher taxpayer, you are also entitled to claim the difference between the basic rate which we will claim and the amount of tax you have actually paid. For further details on how you can do this, please contact your tax office. If your tax situation changes and your gifts will no longer be eligible for the Gift Aid scheme please contact us and we will amend your record accordingly.

Acceptance of any contribution, gift or grant is at the discretion of the Weston Hospicecare. The Weston Hospicecare will not accept any gift unless it can be used or expended consistently with the purpose and mission of the Weston Hospicecare.

No irrevocable gift, whether outright or life-income in character, will be accepted if under any reasonable set of circumstances the gift would jeopardize the donor’s financial security.

The Weston Hospicecare will refrain from providing advice about the tax or other treatment of gifts and will encourage donors to seek guidance from their own professional advisers to assist them in the process of making their donation.

Certain other gifts, real property, personal property, in-kind gifts, non-liquid securities, and contributions whose sources are not transparent or whose use is restricted in some manner, must be reviewed prior to acceptance due to the special obligations raised or liabilities they may pose for Weston Hospicecare.

The Weston Hospicecare will provide acknowledgments to donors meeting tax requirements for property received by the charity as a gift. However, except for gifts of cash and publicly traded securities, no value shall be ascribed to any receipt or other form of substantiation of a gift received by Weston Hospicecare.

The Weston Hospicecare will respect the intent of the donor relating to gifts for restricted purposes and those relating to the desire to remain anonymous. With respect to anonymous gifts, the Weston Hospicecare will restrict information about the donor to only those staff members with a need to know.

The Weston Hospicecare will not compensate, whether through commissions, finders' fees, or other means, any third party for directing a gift or a donor to the Weston Hospicecare.
