Legacies

Without legacies, we would face an uncertain future as a charity.

Caring for special places is a major responsibility. We do it because the alternative – losing the historic buildings, countryside and coast that we love - would be unthinkable. As a charity, the memberships we receive are vital, but they are not enough to cover our on-going costs.

The gifts that generous supporters leave us in their wills vary each year, but can make a big difference to help us care for our 1300 vergées of land, 174 sites, 30 historic buildings and over 19,000 meters of footpath.

Can you help us to secure their future and to remember the cause you and your loved ones are passionate about? Any gift, no matter how large or small makes a lasting difference. Rest assured that whatever gift you leave will be used wisely and effectively.

In memory of a loved one

Only you can know your loved one’s connection with our work, may be there is a place that holds precious memories – a beach where you liked to walk together, a favourite view where you spent a memorable afternoon or two.

Your gift in memory could be used as a general donation to the Trust’s work or to protect a particular place in our care. Alternatively, there may be a special project you can support to remember them.

There are only a couple of things to bear in mind. Many supporters want to sponsor benches and seating, but we would like you to consider some wonderful alternatives, like restoring a footpath, replacing a stile or planting a tree. If funds allow a piece of land or a building can be acquired in a person’s memory and will be duly acknowledged by one of our synonymous Le Don signs.
