A Gift in your Will
With the pressure and uncertainty of financial commitments, many people are unable to make a donation to the Lynda Jackson Macmillan Centre in their lifetime.
Leaving a gift (also called a 'bequest' or 'legacy') in your Will is another way in which you can support the work of the LJMC into the future.
A gift in your Will does not have to be a large amount - any donation to the LJMC is gratefully received and will make a difference, enabling the centre to continue to provide its services of support and information for people affected by cancer.
Under present UK tax legislation, a gift in your Will to a charity is free from Inheritance Tax.
We recommend that you consult a solicitor when writing your Will. They will require our registered charity number which is 1053338. This is the number for our parent Trust, East & North Hertfordshire NHS Trust, so please make sure you specify that your legacy is for the work of the Lynda Jackson Macmillan Centre.
There is no obligation for you to notify the LJMC if you choose to leave a gift to the centre. However, it's nice for us to know so that we can thank you.
For further information about gifts in your Will, please contact the Appeals Office (01923 844107).
