FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Do I need to tell Great Ormond Street Hospital Charity I'm leaving them a gift?

No legal requirement. However, many charities appreciate being notified so they can thank you and plan for future funding. It's entirely your choice.

Can I leave money to multiple charities?

Yes. You can split your charitable gifts between as many charities as you like. Exit State lets you add multiple charities and specify amounts or percentages for each.

What if the charity closes before I die?

If a charity ceases to exist, the gift typically goes to a similar charity or back into your residuary estate (depending on how your Will is worded). Exit State includes fallback clauses to handle this.

Will my family still inherit?

Absolutely. You decide how much goes to charity and how much goes to family. Most people leave the majority to loved ones and a smaller percentage to charity. It's your Will — you're in control.
