Legacy Gifts

Leave a gift in your will to support the work of the FMHT

By including the Falklands Maritime Heritage Trust in your will, you will help us continue our mission for generations to come. Any gift, big or small, supports our expeditions, education programmes and preservation projects — and it is also exempt from inheritance tax. Make a lasting impact and help safeguard the past for the future — consider leaving a gift today. Speak to one of our team today to find out more.

How to leave a gift in your will

There are two main ways to leave a gift in your will:

Pecuniary Gift

A fixed sum of money you wish to donate.

Residuary Gift

A residuary gift can be a percentage share, or all of your remaining estate, after family and friends have been taken care of. This tends to be the most common gift left to a charity.

Our information to give your solicitor when writing your will

The Falklands Maritime Heritage Trust is a registered charity in England and Wales. Registered Charity no. 1159265. Registered address: The Falklands Maritime Heritage Trust, One Bartholomew Close, London, EC1A 7BA.

When writing your will you may want to consider:

1)  Whether you want to leave any of your possessions as special gifts to named individuals.

2)  Leaving a gift to charity, after you’ve taken care of your loved ones.

3)  Appointing Executors who can ensure that your wishes are carried out.

4)  Making sure that your will is legal by ensuring it is signed by two independent witnesses, who are not beneficiaries.

5)  Letting your loved ones know your wishes for your funeral, although this is difficult, will help them to know that they are acting on your plans.
