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
