Leave a gift in your Will

A gift in your Will can make a huge difference to future generations of disabled people. Find out how you can transform lives.

We know thinking about writing a Will is a very personal topic. That’s why we’ve created this short introduction to help you think about your wishes.

Do I need a Will?

Having a Will ensures that you can choose who you would like to receive your assets when you die. Many people assume their partner will inherit their assets and so don’t make a Will. However, if you are unmarried or are in a civil partnership, your loved one won’t automatically inherit your assets.

To ensure your wishes are carried out and you provide for your partner and loves, you can name them in your Will. If you don’t have any family members to pass on your assets to, you may consider including a charity to benefit from your Will.

What is a legacy gift?

A legacy is when you leave a gift in your Will to a charity or charities of your choice.
