Types of Legacy
Residuary Legacy – this comes out of the remainder of your estate after all other legacies, debts, tax and expenses have been paid. It may comprise the whole or a share of the residual amount. All legacies are greatly welcomed by IWA but this type of legacy has special benefits as its value keeps pace with the increase in value of your estate, offsetting the effect of inflation.
Specific Legacy – a gift of a particular item such as property or shares.
Pecuniary Legacy – a specified cash sum. To ensure the value of your gift reflects your changing circumstances and the effect of inflation, you should review pecuniary legacy amounts regularly.
Share your love of the waterways with generations to come
The survival of our rivers and canals must never be taken for granted. From its formation in 1946, The Inland Waterways Association has fought to keep Britain's waterways alive. In the past 50 years more than 400 miles of navigation have been reopened and many more are under active restoration. But some waterways still remain derelict, some are not yet connected to the national network.
The coming years will be full of opportunities to which IWA must respond, as a registered charity, what we can achieve will depend almost entirely on voluntary gifts and legacies from our supporters - people who cherish our waterways.
If you would like to do this, please make use of the pledge form.
