preserving Family wealth

Most couples hope that their estate will pass to their children and grandchildren eventually. But for many this will not happen unless careful arrangements have been made to protect their assets from being taken towards the end of their life to pay care home fees.

To help protect a couple’s estate, the solution may be a will incorporating a Trust. A testamentary Trust can only be executed whilst both partners remain alive. on the death of one partner, their Will specifies that their share of the estate is placed in Trust and names the ultimate beneficiary of this share, normally the children and grandchildren. But under the terms of the Trust the surviving partner has the unequivocal right to remain living in the property and to enjoy the other assets, for the rest of their life.

on the death of the other partner the Trust comes to an end and the estate passes to the beneficiaries. As the surviving partner does not own the deceased’s share of the estate it is fully protected for the beneficiaries, so if the surviving partner requires care, or even remarries, this share of the beneficiary’s inheritance is protected.

This last point can be of particular interest to couples who have come together but have children from different partners. A Trust can help each person in the relationship ensure that their children inherit their share of the estate.

If the surviving partner wants to move they can still sell the property and the proceeds be used to purchase a new property; the terms of the Trust remain over the new property.

westminster Law assesses the circumstances of couples and arranges the Trust that will provide the best protection for them, their family and their assets.

don’t you sometimes wish you could go back in time, knowing everything you do now? would you change anything? i don’t think i would do much differently, but I would definitely take time to visit more places, book more holidays, spend much more time with family and friends and stop worrying about silly material things that really don’t matter at all.

so let’s start planning today and do all those things we’ve been putting off until you can afford it, you can still have amazing times and make wonderful memories without spending a fortune, and with April here and the lighter nights and the flowers springing into bloom, it definitely makes you feel happier and ready for some fun.

I have had some amazing support over the past 2 months from our advertisers and lovely readers, so would like to give a little something back, therefore I am really excited to let you know that I will be expanding the Newtown Llantwit magazine from May to incoroporate one of the new estate in creigiau, hopefully bringing new businesses to our readers living rooms and customers to our advertisers, as well as continuing to help the magazines go from strength to strength.

The magazines are hand delivered to over 24,500 homes and businesses in the rhondda cynon Taff and Vale of Glamorgan areas and we have regular feedback from readers letting us know how much they enjoy it and look forward to the next months edition popping through their door.

As well as being an amazing source of information on local businesses and trades in the local areas, we also include some interesting articles and a whats on section which lets you know about the local events taking place.

so if you would like to generate more customers then why not give us a call or drop us an email, and if you are new to advertising we can help you with designing an advert or just have a chat to discuss your needs.

Also if you run a local club, class, or are holding a charity event that you would like included in our ‘what’s on’ pages then please do not hesitate let us know. For more info please email: enquires@village-directory.co.uk or call: 01443 204399 / 07971 648385.

until next month, happy reading!

‘Reasons not to love you’

A short film by

Bradleigh Way & Ciaran Fitzgerald

‘reasons not to LoVe you’ is a groundbreaking short film penned by disabled writers Ciaran Fitzgerald and Bradleigh way, is beckoning the spotlight as it embarks on a mission to shine a much-needed light on the nuanced landscape of disability, love, and relationships.

an opportunity to aMpLiFy VoiCes: The creators, ciaran Fitzgerald and Bradleigh way are extending a warm invitation for interviews to delve into the profound essence of their film. This engaging narrative navigates the uncharted territory of love and relationships within the disabled community, with a spotlight on the often underrepresented LGBTQ+ dimension.” why this FiLM Matters: It weaves the tale of a young, disabled man’s courageous journey toward self-discovery and coming out, offering an authentic and compelling perspective that is rarely seen in mainstream cinema. Bradleigh Way, who also stars in the film, emphasizes the significance of representation, stating: “We seldom encounter stories featuring disabled individuals in love, let alone those portraying disabled people in LGBTQ+ loving relationships.”

a CaLL For support: In addition to sharing their unique story, ciaran and Bradleigh are earnestly seeking airtime and media support to raise awareness about their ongoing funding campaign. The project has successfully secured a portion of the £3,500 required for production, and they wholeheartedly welcome any opportunity to discuss the significance of the film and its impact on the entertainment industry.

proMoting inCLusiVity and aCCess: ‘Reasons Not to Love You’ is more than a film; it’s a call for change. The production is dedicated to promoting inclusivity and accessibility, with a strong commitment to employing as many disabled creatives as possible. This film seeks to underscore the scarcity of job opportunities within the entertainment industry for disabled individuals and aims to pave the way for a more inclusive and representative future.

Big sLiMMing worLd CLothes throw 2024 slimmers are raising pounds whilst Losing pounds this april!

the great Big slimming world Clothes

throw is back at the taff Valley slimming world groups for 2024! as well as being an incredible opportunity to raise money for Cancer research uk, it’s also a fantastic way to celebrate the life-changing success of the members they support, as they’ve slimmed out of their old clothes and have committed to making healthy changes for life.

since 2013, slimming world members across the UK have donated over £20 million worth of pre-loved items to cancer research UK shops, with the Taff Valley groups donating a whopping 631 bags last year, resulting in donations worth approximately £16,000!

caroline williams, Team Developer and consultant, explains the importance of slimming World’s support and connection to Cancer Research UK ..... “Being overweight has been shown to increase the risk of developing some types of cancer. Being overweight doesn’t mean that someone will definitely develop cancer, but makes it more likely that someone will develop it, than if they are a healthy weight. A person’s exact risk will depend on lots of factors, including things they can’t change such as age and genetics.”

The slimming world groups will be distributing purple donation bags to their members in the coming weeks, prior to the “big collection days” in mid April. Each bag gets filled with clothing that the members have slimmed out of, along with home textiles, children’s clothes, even toys and books, in fact, anything that can be sold to raise much needed funds in cancer research shops.

“Losing weight and maintaining a healthy weight could prevent around 22,800 cases of cancer every year in the UK, and reduce the risk of 13 types of cancer - such as breast, bowel, womb, ovarian and gall bladder cancer.

By donating these items, our members are not only celebrating their incredible achievements but also raising vital funds for research” caroline tells us.

“I’m incredibly proud of our awesome team and their members for the commitment they show to the event. It’s certainly not light work! we load the vans and count up the bags as we go, all adding up to our step count and activity goals and year on year, it just gets bigger and better!”

“Our Groups are so much more than weightloss, they are communities, families and friendships, each consultant brings their own personality, encouragement and support and they do, literally, change lives”

If you’d love to come along and join one of The Taff Valley Groups, you can find their details and venues in their advert in this edition.

happy Birthday to BarrMore Vet!

apriL is a very special time for the team at Barrmore Vets as they are celebrating 10 years under the ownership of giles and emma.

In the past the building we now know as Barrmore Vets has had many guises - including a shop and doctor’s surgery. when emma and Giles bought the practice in 2014, it had been a Vets for over 10 years and was owned by the lovely Julie.

when it was time for Julie to hang up her stethoscope in 2014, Giles, who had worked as a locum for Julie, along with his wife, emma were fortunate enough to purchase the practice.

situated in the lovely Llanharan community, it was literally a dream come true for Giles and emma, who, were local to Llanharan too.

Fast forward 10 years and the practice has undergone significant advancements - it underwent a complete remodel and refurbishment in 2016. It has grown from just Giles as the Vet, emma working on the reception desk and 2 nurses, to a hugely skilled team of 3 vets, 3 nurses, 2 student nurses and 3 veterinary receptionists. The practice now offers K-Laser therapy, in house orthopaedic surgery, comfy cat condos, walk-in kennel, digital x-ray suite, state of the art ultra sound scanner and digital Smartflow Nurse monitoring system to name a few!

Always striving to provide the best possible care and experience for client and pets, they have recently introduced online bookings to enable clients to book appointments 24 hours a day 7 days a week. In addition, they now offer Behaviour consults with their Nurse, Alicia, who has a Degree in Animal Behaviour. the Future oF BarrMore Vets!

The practice is 100% independent and therefore not owned by a large corporate. Giles and emma are proud owners and intend to remain so.

Giles is now trained in Brachycephalic surgery and basic echo cardiograms to complement his 25 years of 1st opinion practice. Andra, one of the Vets, is studying for a certificate in Small Animal Medicine and the nursing team are putting together a programme of Nurse clinics including weight Management, Junior clinics and Geriatric clinics.

externally, its time for another facelift with a refresh of paint and new canopies, whilst internally there will be an upgrade to the waiting room!

Finally, a word from giles and emma: “it is a privilege to be based in such a lovely and supportive community, our love and thanks extends to all of our clients and their incredible pets. we are also blessed to have such an incredible and talented team of professionals that make Barrmore Vets the fantastic, 5 star practice it is. we honestly can’t believe 10 years has passed already and can’t wait to see what the next 10 years brings!”

if you would like to make an appointment, please visit www.barrmorevets.co.uk or our Facebook page to book an online appointment. you can also phone on 01443 224666 to talk to us directly. we Can’t wait to Meet you and your inCrediBLe pets!
