How to leave a gift in your Will

Before you make or update your will, we encourage you to talk to your loved ones. We also recommend getting independent legal advice through your lawyer or visiting one of the online Will platforms.

We partner with both Footprint and EveryWill to give you options when considering an online Will. Both are reputable platforms that are quick and easy to use.
