Donations to NAAPS
Leaving Money to NAAPS in a Will
What are legacies?
A bequest from a donor's will is one of the more traditional forms of giving
to charity and remains a very important one.
There are two types of legacies:
Residuary bequests This means that once family and loved ones have been provided for, the remainder
or a proportion of the deceased's estate is pledged to one or more charities.
Pecuniary bequests This means that the deceased pledges a specific sum of money to a particular
charity.
How do they work?
Charitable legacies reduce the total amount of inheritance tax due from the estate.
Legacies are left through the donor's will or simply by a declaration to the executors
with instructions as to how and to which charity a legacy is to be distributed.
Why leave a legacy to NAAPS?
NAAPS works to make sure that people who need support and services have access
to small scale, responsive, high quality and personalised services wherever they
live in the UK. As a charity NAAPS is dependent on financial support from individuals
as well as grant giving bodies in order to carry out its work. If you have been
lucky enough to get good personalised support from a small scale service then
think about leaving a legacy to NAAPS so that others can get similarly great support
in the future.
