Wills & Trusts
About The Video.
Making a will: This is a Macmillan Cancer Support video highlighting -

  • ​The reluctance of people to write a will.
  • Wills are not all about money.
  • Making and/or updating wills is not hard to do.
  • Making a will need not be too expensive.
  • ​Wills are for everyone not just the elderly.
  • Now is always a good time to start.​​

  • Don't harm others:  I have come to understand that not preparing for ones death is in itself harming those closest to us.  The more complex your finances the greater the potential harm. 
  • Be ethical in all your dealings: We all have people that depend upon us.  Deal with people in death as you dealt with them in life.
  • Make peace with yourself and everyone around you:  There is a huge amount of satisfaction and comfort in knowing that you have done the best you can for those closest to you.  Your legacy will be secured by good planning.
  • Be happy:  In planning for the future we must not forget to live for today.  Every day we spend with others is a blessing.

What's Next?

1. Make a will and formalise how your assets are allocated in the event of your death.

2. Look into trusts.  Trusts allow people to manage assets in a particular way for a specific reason eg. protect assets, enable transfer of assets, .  There are several different types of trusts but they all involve a ‘Trust Deed”, ’Settlor’ a ‘Trustee’ and a ‘Beneficiary’.
  • The trust deed is the physical document setting out the terms and conditions of the trust.
  • The settlor is the person who’s assets are being placed in trust.
  • The trustee is the person nominated to manage the trust.
  • The beneficiary is who benefits from the trust. There can be more than one beneficiary.

Note: ​Money from a life insurance policy may be subject to inheritance tax.  It may be worth considering a trust.
