Donating shares to charity

Posts: 1 Newbie
The bank and building society in my mother's estate do not need probate as her finances are below their thresholds. However she has a small share holding (worth about £65 at today's value) and I want to avoid probate with all the costs that result just for this small shareholding. Can these shares be given to charity, even though her will makes no specific mention of these, such that shares no longer are part of the estate and thus probate can be avoided?
