Book event

Know your options & plan for the future

Whether you are a crofter looking to retire, need to write a crofting will, or you are part of the next generation coming into the family business, there is a lot to think about.

Crofting regulations can be tricky, and the legal and financial implications of the decisions you make also need to be considered. It is never too early to start thinking about succession planning. This meeting will provide an overview of what you need to know in order to evaluate your options and start the ball rolling.

We will hear from a panel of leading crofting, legal, and financial experts: Graham Fraser of SAC consulting, experts from Harper MacLeod LLP, and Ben Laurenson from BML Accountants Ltd.

We will look at what your options might be for handing on your croft(s) and answer your questions on crofting wills and power of attorney and to give you more information on the financial dos and don’ts.
