What do you remember about your childhood?
Whatever childhood was like for you, your Will is a chance to reflect on your life and the experiences that shaped you. Since we were founded more than 150 years ago, we’ve worked to keep a promise – a promise to make childhood safer, and to turn no child away.
Remember childhood in your Will and you help make sure our work carries on today, tomorrow, and long into the future
Our Gifts in Will guide explains how you can leave a gift to us, and how we will use your legacy to support the children and young people who most need our help.
