Gifting a legacy
By making a bequest to the Basketmakers Charitable Trust in your will, you can ensure that your generosity touches future generations, providing hope in years to come. More than half of our existing funds have been made available through gifts in wills.
We understand that your loved ones come first. By leaving to the Trust just a little of what is left after your loved ones have been provided for, you can make a major impact on the causes you hold dear. A legacy to us could also reduce inheritance tax for your beneficiaries.
Please seek professional advice if you are considering including a legacy to us in your will.
If you or your advisers would like to discuss a proposed donation or legacy, please contact our Donations Administrator, Steve Bowsher at stevebowsher@hotmail.com
All conversations are treated in confidence.
Thank you for your support, which is much appreciated.
