What do Legacies Fund

Legacies help us provide beds, specialist nurses and equipment and to extend our recreational programme to benefit all our Veterans. Independence is precious to the people we care for and your gift can help us purchase physiotherapy equipment which allows greater access to mobility. It also helps pay for our Activity Centre, which helps support younger Veterans by offering them companionship and the opportunity to learn new skills. 83p of every pound is spent directly on helping over 800 Veterans every year.

Lots of people ask us if they need to tell us that they have left a gift in their Will. The answer is of course no, but we would love it if you did tell us, so we are able to thank you appropriately and give you a much more personal experience with Erskine.

I fell in love with Erskine the minute I walked through the doors. It just felt like home. I found the whole process to be really very simple. Once I had made my mind up, I made an appointment at my solicitors who wrote my Will for me and a few weeks later I returned to sign it. They talked me through the whole process and made it as simple as possible. It really was that easy. Now I can rest easily knowing that if anything happens to me, Erskine will get a much needed injection of cash.

Free Will writing for Erskine Supporters

There are a number of ways to write a Will that includes a gift to Erskine. Erskine have teamed up with the National Free Wills Network to offer you free, no obligation Will writing.

Using the free Will writing service does not obligate you to leave a gift to Erskine. Your Will is yours and you are free to leave your estate to whoever you wish to benefit.

Being prepared means your family aren’t left unsure of your wishes after you have gone. Your Will provides them with your last wishes and ensures they are taken care of.

Remembering Erskine in your Will also shows everyone the charity which was so special to you.

National Free Wills Network

National Free Wills Network is an agency who put you in touch with local solicitors to write your Will if you prefer to meet with someone face to face.

Erskine’s membership of the National Free Wills Network enables you to write your Will with a local solicitor, with Erskine paying a discounted rate for the writing of a simple Will. We sincerely hope that anyone who takes advantage of this special offer would consider leaving a gift to Erskine, but you are under no obligation to do so. Please fill in the form below if you would like to proceed with free will writing.
