James Wa & 46 anonymous patrons ere are di erent types of legacy which you may wish to leave:
Euan Fleming, Partner of SBEF legal advisor, Burness Paull explains why you might like to consider leaving a legacy to Sco ish Ballet’s Endowment Fund in your Will. ‘Giving money to a charity, such as Sco ish Ballet, in your Will is a great way to leave a positive legacy for the future. It can also reduce the amount of tax paid by the rest of your estate so your family can get the most out of their inheritance.
• Pecuniary — a fixed sum of money
• Specific — an item of property including shares or jewellery
• Residuary — a share of the estate a er specific bequests have been paid
• Contingent — a legacy that only takes e ect if other gi s fail
A legacy gi is completely free from inheritance tax. In addition, if you leave 10% or more of your estate to charity, the rate at which inheritance tax is paid on the remainder of your estate is reduced.’
Supporters leaving legacies are warmly invited to join e Darrell Bequest Circle — established in honour of Peter Darrell and his visionary leadership as Sco ish Ballet’s founding Artistic Director, and in recognition of the significant role legacies play securing our future. By le ing us know that you have included Sco ish Ballet in your Will means you can enjoy special behind-the-scenes events in your lifetime.
‘ e wonderful experience of watching dance on stage was something I discovered by accident as a teenager, and it has been my passion ever since. Leaving a legacy to Sco ish Ballet’s Endowment Fund means that I can continue to share my passion for the creativity of dance with others beyond my lifetime.’
