A local charity supporting
unpaid carers in East Sussex
Carers
In East Sussex it is estimated that there are
approximately 51,000 adult carers and 1800
young carers. Carers can be a family
member, friend or neighbour.
 Carers health and wellbeing can be
adversely affected by the demands of
their caring role
 Carers social opportunities are often
limited, leading to feelings of isolation
What is a Legacy
A legacy is a way of providing support to a
charity in a very special way. By leaving a
donation in your Will you are helping Care
for the Carers to continue its invaluable
work.
How to include Care for the
Carers in your Will
 The average age of a young carer is 12
years old
 There are approximately 12,500 carers
aged 65 and above in East Sussex
 There is no retirement age for carers
Care for the Carers aims; “To improve the
quality of carers’ lives by helping the local
community recognise and value the role of
carers, and by enabling carers to access the
services and support they require.”
Updating an existing Will
We recommend that anyone making
changes to their Will seeks the advice of a
Solicitor or Legal Advisor.
Minor changes to a Will are easy to make.
You can incorporate a gift to Care for the
Carers by way of a Codicil. A Codicil means
that you can alter your Will without needing to
make a completely new one.
There are a number of ways to include
Care for the Carers in your Will:
Residual donation: leaving a percentage
of the residue of your estate after all
dependants have been provided for.
Pecuniary donation: by leaving a specific
sum of money, which can be index linked to
preserve its value.
Specific donation: by deciding to leave a
particular asset to Care for the Carers.
Donations to charities are exempt from tax,
so anything you leave to Care for the
Carers is free of Inheritance Tax and we
would receive the full amount. You can ask
your solicitor about the best way to use
your Will to reduce tax.
