The British Estates Succession and Trust Practitioners (BEST) Foundation has announced plans to host a series of roadshow events in 2026 for members and non-members.
Following three successful years at Silverstone, The National Concorde Centre and, most recently, Edgbaston Cricket Ground, BEST says the decision to launch the roadshow events was in response feedback from attendees and members, who said one central location made it difficult for some to attend. The mini roadshow will allow more members of the estate planning profession the opportunity to see what BEST is about, the organisation said.
The half-day roadshows, held from 1pm to 5pm with the opportunity to network and socialise afterwards, mean people can take part without having to take a full day away from work commitments, BEST said.
The upcoming events will be hosted at Birmingham’s The Cube Hotel on the 20th May, Hope Street Hotel in Liverpool on the 14th July, and London’s 1 Leicester Square Rooftop on the 8th September.
The BEST Foundation was founded in 2022 and describes itself as “the UK’s newest, forward-thinking, self-regulated non-profit foundation for estate planning professionals”. The foundation has been a vocal opponent of prepaid probate, and last year launched a series of new member categories designed to recognise the diversity of the profession.
Today’s Wills and Probate is the official media partner for the events.

Digital estate planning is moving fast, and initiatives like this help ensure the whole community moves forward together. It’s great to see BEST championing progress, inclusion and a more connected future for our industry.
Looking forward to seeing the impact these sessions will have across the UK throughout 2026.
