Why leave a give in your Will

Leaving a gift in your Will, small or large, is a wonderful way to support a cause that you passionately care about and to make a lasting difference. As well as making sure that you are thinking of your loved ones in your Will, more and more people are also leaving a legacy gift to Haven House. 

Get in touch to find out more about leaving a gift in your Will to support seriously ill children.

Everything we do is thanks to the generosity of our supporters and community that feel a connection to the children and family.

Where your money goes

Since we opened our doors in 2003, Sue Irwin, founder of the hospice had a vision for all families with seriously ill children to have a safe haven where they'd have access to care and support - free of charge. 

Legacies left to our hospice mean that we can make decisions for the longer term. None of our work would be possible without the kindness of those who support us. And it's because we are committed to the best care and support for children that we encourage everyone to consider a gift in their Will to help ensure that future generations have access to our specialist care services for as long as they may need them. 

Once you have cared for your family and loved ones in your Will, please think about including Haven House in your wishes, and making a difference in your local community. Without kind gifts made in this way, we would not be able to continue to provide vital care.

Gifts in Wills are important and help us provide the care to seriously ill babies, children and their families as well as planning for the future of our hospice. We need you now more than ever. Without legacies we could not support our families during the most difficult times and ensure we are here into the future.
