This week – until 13 September – 2026, it’s Remember A Charity week! What a brilliant opportunity to focus on the remarkable impact of charitable gifts in Wills across the UK.

We’ll all be remembered for something. A funny moment. A unique hobby. Or even your legendary dance moves at the local disco night.

But you can be remembered for even more, by leaving a gift in your Will to your favourite charity.

Why leave a legacy?

Whether you want to support a local cause such as your parish or diocese, provide for vulnerable families in the UK or help overseas communities and parishes, a legacy could be the most far-reaching gift you ever make. Writing a Will allows you to provide for the people and causes close to your heart. Alongside loved ones, many people choose to remember their favourite charities that they trust to do good work and protect their values. Remembering a charity in your Will needn’t cost you a penny during your lifetime and it can help to reduce the taxable value of your estate. As well as being a powerful force for good in the future, a legacy is also a very practical way to support your favourite cause.
