FAQs for Ireland Gift in Will

Before starting your Will, you can find helpful information at the link below. Along with your unique voucher code, we will also send you a short document to support you in preparing for the process and thinking through your wishes.

No. Using the Free Will Service does not place you under any obligation to leave a gift to Samaritans Ireland. Your Will is a personal and private document, and any decisions you make are entirely your own.

You don’t have to let us know. If you choose not to, we would only become aware of a gift when the Will is read in the future. Some supporters like to let us know so we can thank them and keep in touch, but that is completely optional.
There is also an option within the Will to indicate that a charitable gift has been included, though individuals are not identified through this.

Including a gift to Samaritans Ireland in your Will does not create a binding commitment. As long as you are alive, you are free to amend or update your Will at any time if your circumstances or wishes change.

Yes. You are very welcome to use your own solicitor to make or update your Will, though their services may not be provided free of charge. Simply let them know if you would like to include a cash gift or a share of your estate to Samaritans Ireland, and they will take care of the details.

If you already have a Will and would like to add a gift, your solicitor can prepare a codicil, which allows you to make a small amendment without rewriting the entire document. If you do choose to let us know, we would be grateful for the opportunity to thank you — but there is no obligation to do so.
