Why your gift matters
Every year, gifts in Wills help Keech Hospice support thousands of adults, children, and their families across Bedfordshire, Hertfordshire and Milton Keynes.
1 in 5 of our patients are cared for thanks to a thoughtful gift in a Will.
Your legacy could:
- Provide expert care for life-limiting conditions.
- Bring comfort and dignity to families during their hardest moments.
- Extend care beyond our hospice to homes, schools, and communities
You don’t have to be wealthy to make a difference to people’s lives. Whether it’s a share of your estate or a fixed amount of money, your special gift will help our patients and their families at a time when they need our care the most.

What gifts could I leave?
Your gift can be as small or large as you like. There are three ways of leaving a gift…
A share of your estate
From 1% to 100%, or anything in between. This is called a residuary gift and is the most common way to leave a gift in your Will
A cash gift
This is called a pecuniary gift
A specific item you own
For example a piece of jewellery, a car or a painting

A gift in your Will is a promise to help families find comfort, relief, and dignity for years to come.
- £500 could provide specialist equipment for our care teams.
- £5,000 could support Keech’s community outreach programs.
