Gifts in Wills


What would you like to protect?

Caring for over 2,200 people and employing 3,000 staff, as a charity in the underfunded and under resourced social care system, is hugely challenging.  That’s likely to never change.

If you decide to leave a gift in your Will, you can help provide services that tackle the everyday challenges that learning disabled people and their families face. Whether the people we support are feeling socially isolated, need care to manage physical health conditions, or if our family carers need help and support.
