Leaving gifts in your will

Gifts in your will play a valuable role in ensuring CAMRA can continue to do its work.

Since 1971 CAMRA has been doing all, it can to promote and ensure the future of quality real ale, cider and perry. We have had numerous successes over the years with Licensing hours, Beer Orders Reform, Beer Tax Escalator and Planning protection to name a few.

This work would not be possible without our members past and present. As we mature as an organisation, we have had enquires about how to leave a legacy and we are responding by providing some information on how to do so.

Remembering CAMRA

Every gift makes a difference. If or when the time is right to think about your will, please remember CAMRA, by including us you will create a legacy that will directly support our objectives to:

  • Promote and advocate the production, availability and consumption of quality real ale, cider and perry
  • Help current and future generations of supporters campaign to preserve pubs and clubs as social centers and part of the UK’s cultural heritage.

 

Leaving A legacy

There are different ways you can leave a legacy in your will.

  • Pecuniary Legacy – A gift of a fixed sum of money decided by you.
  • Specific Legacy – A gift of a particular named asset or item, for example a property or shares.
  • Residuary Legacy – Is a gift of estate which remains after the satisfaction of all claims e.g. after all debts, taxes and specific legacies have been paid. Residuary legacy is also known as a residual legacy. It is a not specific amount and can be determined by you as a percentage. Just 1% of a residual estate could make a significant difference to the work we do.
  • Reversionary Legacy – A gift of an asset (such as a property) left for the use of the named beneficiary during their lifetime, after which it is then passed to another beneficiary, such as CAMRA.

If you have already made a will you can add a gift to CAMRA through a codicil, a simple legal document that amends an existing will. Your solicitor can explain which is the most suitable option for you and guide you through the process.

If you have any questions with regards to leaving a legacy you can contact us on legacy@camra.org.uk

If you have already left us a gift in your will, please do let us know. We would love to have the opportunity to thank you for your generosity.

Thank you for supporting CAMRA.

 

How to make a will
