2024 GIW Friendly Guide Services

Thank you for fast-tracking a cure for multiple sclerosis, and providing care until we’re there.

A Will is a vital document that means your final wishes will be fulfilled in the exact ways you ask.

It reflects your values, beliefs and what matters most to you. It will make sure your loved ones are cared for.

And with a gift in your Will to MS Plus, it will make sure that you’re fast-tracking a cure for multiple sclerosis, and providing care until we’re there.

Even 1% or 2% of what is left after gifts to family and friends can make a huge difference. It costs nothing now, but changes so many lives into the future.

Your friendly Gift in Wills team is here to answer any questions or concerns you may have.

Please don’t hesitate to get in touch with:

Laura Henschke, Future Planning Manager or Rebecca Stalenberg, Gift in Will Manager.

Five simple steps to leaving a gift to MS Plus in your Will: 1. Talk to a Solicitor or Trustee Company The first step to leaving a gift in your Will is to get in touch with a Solicitor or Trustee Company offering a Will-writing service. You may already have one.

Simply give them this booklet or the included “postcard for your Solicitor” at your next visit and let them know you’d like to include MS Plus in your Will.

Some Will-writing services will be online. The information they will request will be similar to that detailed below.

2. Decide on the kind of gift you are going to give Some people give money, some people give valuable items, some people give a percentage of their estate, and some even give everything that is left after their loved ones have been taken care of.
