We fully understand that your loved ones come first, – but maybe you are in a position to remember the Hamlet Centre Trust with a gift in your will, too. You can choose to leave us a share of your estate, a fixed sum or a specific gift. If you have already made a will, you can use the following wording to make a simple addition (codicil) which can be sent to your solicitor.
We recommend that you seek the guidance of a solicitor when you make your will/ add a codicil to your existing will so that your intentions can be fully carried out.

I further direct that the receipt of the Treasurer or other proper officer of Hamlet Centre Trust for the time being shall be a full and sufficient discharge to my executors.’A specific legacy (an object of value, i.e. car, stamp collection, etc…):
