16 Lloyds shares

I have 16 Lloyds shares in the name of my deceased mother.
I am named as executor.
I previously got some swapped to my name, but these few seemed to have missed.
Seeing as Lloyds are about 50p per share then it's not really worth selling as the cost would be probably more than they are worth.

Just wondered if there was a way to gift them to a charity.

Thanks in advance.

    I've just done a quick Google search and this has popped up, amongst others, so it can be done!

    Get in touch with Equiniti the registrars to see if they have a similar scheme to that posted above.
