Legacy Donations
There is no 'cure' for cerebral palsy and the Trust needs your help to continue and expand its work, providing vital support for children with special needs and their families. We all worry about rising costs and uncertainties but the inclusion of a Legacy for the Trust in your Will would provide valuable help at some future time without adding to your current expenditure.
If you already have a Will, a simple Codicil is all that is needed to provide for a Legacy. You do not need to write a new Will.
If you have not yet made a Will, and would like to receive a copy of our leaflet, please give us a call on 01403 780444 or Email: [email protected]
