Bristol Animal Rescue Centre Free Will

Bristol Animal Rescue Centre (Bristol A.R.C.) has cared for our city’s rescued pets and wildlife for over 130 years.

Since 1887, they have been helping, healing and homing Bristol’s vulnerable animals. Each year, they support many animals both within their centre and in the local community through their outreach programme. However, they do not receive automatic funding from the RSPCA and rely entirely on local community support to carry out their vital work.

We are proud to support Bristol Animal Rescue Centre by offering a free Will to anyone who includes a legacy to the charity. Any money is greatly appreciated and goes a long way to caring for animals in need.

Supporting Bristol Animal Rescue Centre

Our pets are part of our family, and we are passionate about supporting Bristol Animal Rescue Centre and the welfare of the animals they care for. They rely on regular donations, fundraising and, importantly, legacies to keep running. This is why we are offering a free Will to anyone who leaves a gift to support their cause.

If you would like to support the essential work of Bristol Animal Rescue Centre, contact us today to write your Will for free.

Bristol Animal Rescue Centre Objectives

Their goal is to prevent cruelty, promote kindness to animals, reduce suffering, and increase their well-being as much as possible. Their welfare principles are based on the RSPCA’s ‘5 Freedoms’:

Freedom from hunger and thirst
Freedom from discomfort
Freedom from pain, injury and disease
Freedom to express normal behaviour
Freedom from fear and distress

Subject to space, the charity aims never to turn away an animal in need of their help. They always go the extra mile to meet the specific welfare needs of each animal in their care. As well as enrichment, diet, play and expert veterinary care, all animals are respected and treated with empathy and compassion.

So how does it work?

Planning for the future doesn't have to be complicated. All it takes is three simple steps.

Schedule your free appointment

You can meet with one of our consultants from the comfort of your home. They'll provide you with guidance and answer any questions you might have, ensuring you understand every step.

We draft your Will

Our legal team then reviews your instructions. They draft your documents and send out a proof for your approval.

Sign your Will

Once satisfied, your Will is sent to you for signing and witnessing. Now you have a complete Will with a gift to support local animals in need.

Why do I need a Will?

A Will is more than a legal document; it’s a way to ensure your wishes are carried out, protect your loved ones, and provide clarity during a difficult time. Without a valid Will, your estate may not be distributed as you intend, which could cause stress and complications for your family.

By creating a Will, you can:

Ensure your estate is distributed according to your wishes.
Appoint guardians for minor children.
Protect your assets for future generations.
Support causes close to your heart through charitable gifts.

The IHT benefits of charitable gifting

Leaving a charitable gift in your Will not only supports organisations like Bristol A.R.C. but can also reduce your Inheritance Tax liability.

Tax-Free Gifts: Any amount you leave to a registered charity is exempt from IHT and can help reduce the value of your estate below current thresholds, potentially eliminating or lowering the tax burden on your estate.
Reduced Tax Rate: If you leave 10% or more of your estate to charity, any IHT due on your estate reduces from 40% to 36%.

If you think it is time to protect your estate whilst also giving back to a good cause, then get your free Will today when you leave a legacy to Bristol Animal Rescue Centre.
