The Clare Foundation is excited to be partnering with Lennons Solicitors to bring you the first in a series of seminars.
Gifts to Charities Unwrapped is an in-person event for charity professionals responsible for legacies, finance and governance and our guest speaker is Kumaran Sivathillainathan.
This seminar will guide you on:
- how charities can deal with hostile beneficiaries or obstructive executors or administrators
- how beneficiaries can replace or remove executors or administrators who are not administering the estate properly
- how to risk proof gifts to charities to minimise any future issues
