Please fill in the short form below:
If you have decided to leave a gift to the Sickle Cell Society then please complete this form to let us know so we can send you a thank you letter and keep you updated with the work we are doing.
I already have a Will. Can I update it to include the Sickle Cell Society?
Yes. You can add a codicil for any minor changes to your Will, including the addition of a charity. When you speak to your solicitor they will advise you if a codicil is the best option. If there are several changes to make it may be more appropriate to re-write your Will – which doesn’t cost much more.
Can I specify how I would like my gift to be used?
Yes. Please contact our Fundraising Officer for more information: ainhoa.munoz@sicklecellsociety.org or call 020 8961 7795
Will my gift be taxed?
No. Gifts to charities are exempt from Inheritance Tax and this can be a way of reducing exposure of your estate to tax. For more information, visit the HM Revenue & Customs website
How much does the gift have to be to make a real difference?
Every gift can make a positive difference to the future of the Society and the lives of people living with sickle cell. We receive gifts of a range of different sizes and it is when they are collected together that they make the most impact.
