Leave a gift in your will

Reforesting takes time. It’s oak saplings pushing their way through brambles and birdlife returning to hillsides. It’s time healing our native forests, moors and wetlands.

Today, bequests to the Isle of Man Woodland Trust are helping us to turn this vision into reality.

There are various affordable digital options for writing your will. If you wish to make a will yourself, you can do so. However, you should only consider doing this if the will is going to be straightforward. While there is no need for a will to be drawn up or witnessed by a solicitor, it is advisable.

It is easy to make mistakes writing a will and, if there are errors in the will, this can cause problems after your death. Sorting out misunderstandings and disputes after your death may result in considerable legal costs, which will reduce the amount of money in the estate.
