Request our free guideHow to a leave a gift in your Will
Making a Will is one of the things that many of us put off. But it's an important step in ensuring the people and causes you care about are looked after. And with our free and discounted Will writing services, it doesn't have to cost a penny!
Whether you're creating your first Will or looking to update or amend an existing one, leaving a gift is simple – just follow these four steps.
You can choose to dedicate your gift, or leave a gift in your Will, as a tribute to a loved one or one of amazing our Supporter Groups. Your Will writing professional can help you chose the right wording for this.
Any gift left to a Supporter Group will be invested into the area of our work that they support, such as paediatric high grade brain tumours, and will ensure that they can continue to help us speed up the life-saving breakthroughs that are so urgently needed.
Dedicating a gift in your Will offers a special tribute while helping us accelerate a cure. We promise to celebrate the lives of those who inspire us every day.
You don’t need to tell us how much you plan to leave, but we’d love to be able to say thank you! If you’d like to let us know about your gift, please email mygift@thebraintumourcharity.org

- Choose a solicitor from the list and arrange an appointment.
- Once you've had your meeting, you'll be asked to complete a Confidential Declaration Form where you can tell us if you've included a gift in your Will, but there's absolutely no obligation to do so.
