the more contemporary way of talking about a legacy eg a donation someone leaves to charity in their will. Note that neither 'gift' nor 'will' is capitalised.

not gov.uk

government
when talking about the Government use uppercase, when talking about a government, use lower case
eg we are urging the Government to reconsider...

GP
use doctor instead of GP where possible, as it's more easily understood
