Your letter scope

Choose the areas you want this letter to cover. Your selections shape the questions that follow, so you only spend time on guidance that is relevant to your life, your will, and the people who may need to understand your wishes.

What does letter scope mean?

A Letter of Wishes is a flexible companion to your will. It can explain the personal background, practical preferences, and non-binding guidance that a formal will usually cannot cover. Start with the sections that matter now; you can keep this focused, or include more detail if your circumstances are more complex.

Ticking a section adds dedicated prompts later in the form. Leaving a section unticked simply skips those prompts. You can come back and change the scope before creating your draft.

Include these sections Personal possessions Explain the story behind meaningful items, who you would like considered, and any preferences about sharing or preserving them. Funeral wishes Record the tone of remembrance you would prefer and the practical details that could help loved ones make decisions calmly. Digital assets Help executors know what exists and where access instructions are safely stored, without putting sensitive credentials in the PDF. Children or guardians Share care preferences, routines, values, and important relationships that could help guardians understand your hopes. Pets Give loved ones enough context to maintain continuity of care and avoid uncertainty about your animals. Charities and causes Describe causes you would like remembered and why they matter to you, especially where context may help trustees or loved ones. Trustee guidance Give trustees practical, balanced guidance while keeping the language flexible and non-binding. Sensitive decisions Explain the background carefully and factually so your wishes are easier to understand and less likely to be misread. Other wishes Add any extra personal or practical guidance that would help the people reading your letter.
