Give a gift in your Will

Leave a Lasting Legacy

For over 30 years, we have supported people affected by cardiomyopathy and fought to ensure they get the care and treatment they need. The people we help feel better able to cope, less scared, less alone and ready to fight back.

Help us continue our mission in supporting families and future generations affected by heart muscle disease. A future where anyone with cardiomyopathy can live a long and fulfilling life.

Cardiomyopathy UK has partnered Farewill, UK’s #1 Will writing service, so you can write your will for free.

No matter what stage of life you're in, having a will offers peace of mind that your friends and family will be taken care of, so you can focus on enjoying the present. Your will can also give an opportunity to make a contribution to the cause that matters most to you, building your lasting legacy.

You can write your will with Farewill in just 30 minutes and from the comfort of your own home. Farewill’s specialist team are available to help you over the phone or email, Monday to Friday 9-6pm. They offer expert checking to ensure your wishes are clear, and their Unlimited Changes service means that you can update your will at any time.

Once your loved ones are provided for, we hope you will consider leaving a gift to Cardiomyopathy UK. Any gift, large or small, will leave a lasting impact.

Thank you.

FAQs

Why do I need a Will?

A will is a way of looking after the people and causes you care about after you’ve died. It ensures your wishes are carried out. If someone dies without a will, the process of dealing with their estate becomes more complicated, causing stress for loved ones and potential financial costs.

Do I have to leave a gift to the charity if i use the service?

What type of gifts can I leave to the charity?

You can leave a specific amount of money, a percentage of your estate, or even a specific item. There are three main types of gifts:

• A share of your estate (residuary gift)
• A fixed sum of money (pecuniary gift)
• A specific item, such as jewellery or property

The decision of what kind of gift to leave, or whether to leave one, is entirely yours.

Can I update my will later?

You can update your will if your situation changes. Farewill provide an Update Service on their wills online, offering unlimited free updates for the first year, and £10 a year thereafter.

Update Service

How do I leave a gift?

During the process of writing your will with Farewill, you will be prompted to decide if you want to include a gift to our charity. There's no requirement to do so, but if you choose to, just respond when asked with 'Yes' or 'No'.

Farewill will then incorporate the appropriate wording into the will, and after it has been checked by their specialist team, it will be sent to you to be printed, signed, and witnessed.
