The Trusts Discussion Forum is a moderated mailing list dedicated to discussion by practitioners of topics relating to the drafting and administration of trusts, wills and other private client issues including taxation.

The forum was founded by James Kessler QC, TEP in 1998 and is now moderated by Richard Vallat, TEP and Sarah Dunn, TEP of Pump Court Tax Chambers.

It is primarily concerned with issues which arise for advisors in the UK although non-UK practitioners may find some discussions useful.

The forum is administered by STEP but is open to members and non-members alike.
