Leave a Gift in your Will

Making a Difference

A gift in your Will, regardless of size, makes a huge difference.

It is thanks to people like you, who remember us in their Will, that we can continue caring for years to come, helping future generations to live their precious lives well.

Some gifts are transformational, such as the gift in the Will of a local resident that enabled us to purchase the land the Hospice proudly stands on today. Your gift is more valuable than you can imagine

We’ve created some resources to help guide you through the process of updating or writing your Will so please read on to see how we can help.

For an informal and confidential chat, please get in touch with our dedicated team on 01442 869 555 or by email at legacy@stfrancis.org.uk.

Your kindness can care for local families for generations to come

1 in 5 patients we care for each year are looked after thanks to gifts in Wills.

Leave a gift in your Will and help ensure compassionate hospice care is available whenever it's needed.

Did you know...?

Leaving a gift in your Will to the Hospice is entirely exempt from Inheritance Tax, reducing the taxable value of your estate.

Donating 10% or more of your estate to charity can lower your tax rate, from 40% to 36%.

Got a question? We'd love to hear from you!

Emily and her mum

"From the moment we arrived at the Hospice, we got something we hadn’t had in a long time: time together, as a family.

As her 23-year-old daughter who had become her full-time carer - giving injections, setting alarms, answering calls in the night - I got to just be her daughter again.

The hospice gave us two precious weeks. They let me stay by her side every night, made us meals, and looked after not just Mum, but all of us."

Emily
