Amnesty International UK Make a Will Month

  • Posted

We are proud to participate in Amnesty's free will-writing scheme ‘Make a Will Month’. Helping to tackle human rights abuses around the world. 

We are working with Amnesty International UK by providing a free Will service in return for a gift or donation left to the charity.

We are offering 5 appointments per week between 1-31 March for you to be able to book an appointment to make a free Will in return for making a donation to Amnesty International UK.

'Leaving a gift to Amnesty International UK in your Will is one of the most valuable and lasting ways you can help protect individuals wherever freedom, peace and justice are denied. It costs nothing during your lifetime but will have a powerful impact for years to come. Each legacy Amnesty receives translates into action and support for individuals being denied their rights.'

WHAT YOUR GIFT COULD DO

  • With your help, just 1% of a £50,000 estate could help cover the cost of our school speakers programme, teaching 27,000 young people about human rights and inspiring the next generation of human rights defenders.
  • A legacy from you of £5,000 could pay for media fellowships in developing countries for four journalists, enabling them to report and raise awareness of human rights violations.
  • Leaving Amnesty International UK 10% of a £300,000 estate could enable us to conduct two human rights investigations in crisis countries with security equipment, satellite imagery and forensic support.

Please contact Brindley Meredith or Donna-Marie Peirse on 01904 624185 to book your appointment.
