Gifts left in Wills contribute nearly £1 million annually, helping ellenor raise the £7 million needed each year to provide its vital care services.
Verity Owers, ellenor’s Legacy Giving Manager shared:
“We are immensely grateful for all of the legacy gifts we receive here at ellenor. The generosity of those kind supporters who choose to leave a gift in their Will directly benefits our local community.”
There can be a misconception that leaving a legacy is complicated and expensive, but it doesn’t have to be. There are various ways to get a Will drawn up and it’s advisable to work with a solicitor or professional to ensure your wishes and circumstances are reflected. But there are simple and cost-effective ways of making and updating a Will. Will writing services can assist with this process and so with that in mind, ellenor have recently partnered with Squiggle, a local, Kent based Will writing service.
Through the service, ellenor supporters can have a basic Will written for free with the option to make a one-off donation to ellenor, as well as receive details of how they could leave a gift in their Will to ellenor, although there is no obligation to do either.
