Information for executors and solicitors
Are you responsible for a Will that has BMS written into it?
Firstly, we appreciate that being an executor can be an exhausting and emotionally demanding role, so please do reach out if you need any help. Please email our Legacy Officer Lucy on legacies@bmsworldmission.org or call 01235 517615.
We would encourage you to first inform us of the death and send us a copy of the Will. This will enable us to ensure that we fully receive what we have been gifted.
If we have been left a share of an estate, we would be grateful if we could also receive the following:
- A copy of the estate accounts (schedule of assets and liabilities)
- A tax deduction certificate (form R185) (if applicable)
This will ensure that we administer all legacy gifts in accordance with the guidelines set down by the Charity Commission.
Legacies can be paid by cheque or bank transfer.
If you would like to make a bank transfer, please contact our Legacy Officer, Lucy on legacies@bmsworldmission.org beforehand or call 01235 517615
Cheques should be made payable to ‘BMS World Mission’ and sent with a covering letter to: BMS World Mission, PO Box 49, 129 Broadway, Didcot, Oxfordshire, OX11 8XA.
