A gift in a Will, also called a legacy gift, is a way to leave either money, possessions or a part of your estate to an organisation, or person, after you die.
An ‘estate’, in this context, simply means the total value of all your property and assets.
Costs can vary depending on the complexity of your Will. Your solicitor should clarify this before you make your Will.
You can write your Will at no cost using our Free Will Service. This service covers the cost of writing or amending a simple Will. Find out more about our Free Will Service

Not at all. Whatever size or type of gift you leave us, you'll be supporting more breakthroughs in cancer research at The Royal Marsden for patients now and for generations to come.
Most people leave their gift to the Charity in a way that means it can be used to fund the greatest need at the time. This ensures that the most people can benefit from your donation. However, we do understand that leaving a gift in your Will is very personal and we’d be happy to discuss this with you.

Registered charity number: 1095197
If your circumstances or personal details change, you'll need to update your Will with a solicitor. We can help by providing some suggested wording for your Will but you’ll also need expert advice. Get in touch for more support or register for our Free Will Service.
