Write your Will

You can still include a gift to Hospice in the Weald, it’s important to update your Will throughout your life, and you can make any changes you would like to. You can talk to a solicitor about adding a codicil or rewriting your Will entirely using one of our partnered Will writers or with a solicitor.

You can write a basic Will for free through one of our trusted partners. More complex Wills should be written by solicitor, you should agree a fee in your initial meeting with them.

To make your gift legally valid, include our full name, address and charity number. Example:

“I give [£___ or ___% of my estate] to Hospice in the Weald, Maidstone Road, Pembury, TN2 4TA. Registered Charity No. 280276.”

If you make your Will with a solicitor it will be helpful to have this information in your appointment.

We ask that your gift is given freely with out restrictions on where the funds can be spent. This is especially important with gifts left in Wills, as this is a gift for the future we can’t predict where it might be needed.

Every gift, big or small, supports patients and families when they need it most. You can choose to leave a specific amount known as a pecuniary gift or a percentage of your estate which is known as a residuary gift.

Write or update your Will after major life changes like marriage, children, or buying a home. But really, the best time is now. A Will gives you control and peace of mind.

Yes, leaving a gift in your Will in memory of a loved one is a special way to celebrate them. You can let us know at the time you pledge a gift, and we will record your wishes or you can include instruction in your Will that we be notified of your wishes.

Your Will is personal, you don’t have to tell us but when someone lets us know that they have pledged to leave a gift it can help us plan for the future. If you do let us know, we’d love to say thank you and keep you updated on how gifts like yours help our care live on.
