Legacy Giving
Change starts with a will
We’ve partnered with expert estate planners, Octopus Legacy, so you can write or update your will for free*.
The cost of your will is covered by us up to £150 – so you can write or update a simple will for free or get a will with trust at a discounted rate.
While many supporters choose to include a gift in their will to Lupus UK, there’s no obligation to do so when using this service.
How to write or update your will:
Find the right will for you. You can write your will:
- Online
- Over the phone/video call
- In-person (At home or in-branch)
Or call Octopus Legacy directly on 020 4525 3605 and quote “Lupus UK”.
*Applies to simple wills only. Discounts are applicable for wills with trusts
A legacy gift is a lasting memory that carries on your kindness, values and compassion. These gifts help to fund vital research, keep our helpline open and ensure that everyone who needs us has access to our services, and that our vital research into lupus can continue to progress.
Leave a lasting legacy
Types of Legacy Gifts
Whichever Legacy you choose, your solicitor can advise you on the best option for your very personal wishes.
Residuary Gift
This is a percentage of what remains of your estate after all other gifts and expenses have been paid.
It keeps pace with inflation and ensures your loved ones are looked after first.
Pecuniary Gift
A Fixed amount of money that you choose to donate.
This is simple to arrange and easy to adjust as your circumstances change.
Specific Gift
A particular item of value, such as jewellery, artwork, or shares that you might wish to leave to Lupus UK.
Reversionary Gift
Allows you to provide for your loved ones first, with any remaining funds passing to Lupus UK.
Many of us wish we could do more for all the wonderful causes we care about. A gift in your will allows you to make a very meaningful contribution without impacting your finances today.
“I have never forgotten the support I was given; it gave me so much comfort when I needed it the most”
A gift in your will could help more service users access vital support.
