Gifts in Wills

If we are a charity close to your heart, or we have helped you or someone you love, even a small gift in your Will could help make a huge difference to our work.

We rely on charitable donations to ensure we can provide free high-quality hospice care at home for those living with a life-limiting illness, and holistic support for their families and carers.

Our vision is to provide more care for more people – before, during and after death. Please help us do that for many years to come. Any amount is gratefully received and ensures the sustainability of the charity moving forward.

Did you know?

In 2017 Campden Home Nursing received a legacy that changed the face of the charity. It had an enormous impact on our ability to reach more patients. The donation has enabled a 500% increase in the amount of hours we have nursed over the last 5 years. Our patients’ families will always be grateful we were there for them at the end of their loved ones life.

Gifts in Wills have have enabled us to introduce vital new services to our core Hospice Care at Home Service, such as our and Bereavement Services for children and adults. Fundamentally, these gifts ensure that we can make every precious moment count for people with life-limiting illnesses, and their families.

If you already have a Will, you can phone or write to your solicitor with our charity name and charity number. It can be done in minutes.

Why remember Campden Home Nursing in your Will?

The need for our help in Gloucestershire, Worcestershire and Warwickshire continues to grow. However, we are a small charity who, like other charities, relies on donations to support our vital work. Gifts in Wills are essential for all charities. Despite this, many people aren’t even aware of this form of giving.

One person who has experienced the death of a loved one is Diane Mason, who lost her husband, Bob, during the COVID-19 pandemic Here, she tells her story and how the compassion and care Campden Home Nursing provided helped her through some of the most difficult times in her life.

Will you help us to help others?

Will you help more people benefit from our free services? After you’ve taken care of loved ones, whether you leave us a percentage of your estate or a cash sum, however large or small, every gift means so much to us. We would be honoured if you would consider supporting Campden Home Nursing. A gift in your Will costs you nothing, but leaves a lasting legacy.

It is an impactful way to leave your mark on a cause you feel passionately about. Many people don’t think they are wealthy enough to make a difference, but even 1% of your estate, can make a big difference to our work for generations to come.

Three Ways to Help

There are many ways you can leave a gift to Campden Home
Nursing in your Will:

  • A Specific Gift: this can be anything from a property, shares or a piece of jewellery or art.
  • A Residuary Gift: this is a gift of part or all of your estate once your family has been cared for and debts and expenses paid. As this gift is based on a % of your estate, you don’t need to worry if your financial circumstances change.
  • A Pecuniary Gift: this is a fixed sum of money
