Gifts in Wills help fund around 49% of our charitable work, helping us support people affected by cancer across Wales, now and for generations to come.
After providing for the people you love, leaving a gift in your Will is a meaningful way to support a cause close to your heart.
Your gift could help us provide vital support to people affected by cancer, including:
Support Line: Giving people someone to talk to when they need support
Counselling: Helping people cope with the emotional impact of cancer.
Mobile Support Units: Bringing cancer support closer to home for people across Wales.
Every gift, whatever its size, can help us be there for people affected by cancer in the future.
When I was diagnosed with lung cancer, I was shell-shocked, just couldn’t believe it. I was about to go on a rollercoaster of a ride, but I was lucky to have some blessings along the way. My wife, Beverley, was amazing, an absolute rock, and so were Tenovus Cancer Care"
Leaving a gift in your Will is a personal decision. Once you've made provision for the people closest to you, you could choose to leave a gift to Tenovus Cancer Care. There are different ways to leave a gift:
This gift is a share of your estate, 10% for example. This type of gift is the most beneficial as the value is inflation proof.
For example, many people like to leave 10% to a charity of their choice.
This is a fixed amount of money. Perhaps you’d like to leave your grandchildren a university fund or the deposit for their first house? Or maybe you’re thinking about leaving a fixed cash sum like £1,000 to charity.
These gifts will be affected by inflation this may mean their value is less than you intended when you made your Will. Reviewing your Will regularly or linking with inflation can help protect your cash gift.
A Specific Gift is when you leave specific items as a gift, like jewellery. This is great if you have special items you want to leave to specific people and can also save arguments later! You can also leave things like property, shares or even land, to a loved one or a charity of your choice.
