The Clan Macpherson Museum Bequest Template
Referring to the National Museum of Scotland website, we offer the following guidance:
How to leave a gift in your will
When making or updating your will we strongly recommend that you consult a solicitor to ensure it is legally valid and reflects your intentions. The following wording can be adapted by your solicitor to suit the type of gift you wish to leave:
"I give, devise and bequeath to Clan Macpherson Museum Trust SC020005, Clan Macpherson Museum, Main Street, Newtonmore, Inverness-shire PH20 1DE the sum of £xxx (xxx pounds)",
or
"the whole (or xxx% share) of my residuary estate"
or
"[insert details of a specific gift] to hold on trust for its general charitable purposes, and I declare receipt of the Treasurer or duly authorized officer shall be a full and sufficient discharge."
Note
An unrestricted bequest is always the most helpful; however. if you are considering directing your gift to a particular site or area of our work we would welcome the opportunity to discuss your plans with you before you commit them to a will, to ensure we can meet your wishes.
Thank You
