Make Your Will For Good

A gift in your Will could change the future for people living with thyroid disease.

After you’ve looked after your loved ones, even a small gift to Thyroid UK can help ensure that nobody has to face thyroid disease alone.

For over 25 years we’ve been providing trusted information, support and a voice for people affected by thyroid conditions. Because we receive no government funding, gifts left in Wills will help us continue this vital work for generations to come.

Why leave a gift to Thyroid UK?

Every legacy gift, whatever its size, helps us continue providing support when people need it most.

Your gift could help us to:

• Provide trusted information and resources for patients and families
• Support research into better diagnosis and treatment
• Campaign for improved thyroid care across the UK
• Expand our support services and helpline
• Raise awareness of thyroid disease among healthcare professionals and the public

Your loved ones come first

We understand that family and friends will always be your priority.

Once you’ve provided for those closest to you, leaving even a small percentage of your estate to Thyroid UK can have a lasting effect.

Every gift makes a difference

You don’t have to leave a large sum to make a meaningful impact.

Many people choose to leave:

• A share of their estate
• A fixed amount of money
• A specific item or asset

Whatever you choose, your generosity will help improve the lives of thousands of people affected by thyroid disease.

Making or updating your Will

Writing a Will is one of the most important things you can do for those you care about.

If you don’t already have a Will, we recommend speaking with a qualified solicitor. If you already have one, it’s easy to update it by making a new Will or, in some circumstances, by adding a codicil.

You should review your Will after major life events such as:

• Marriage or civil partnership
• Divorce
• Moving home
• Having children or grandchildren
• Significant changes in your finances

What type of gift can I leave?
