Remember a Charity Week
For Remember A Charity Week (7th-13th September), over 200 UK charities come together to encourage people to consider leaving a gift to charity in their Will. Gifts in Wills from kind supporters like you are vital to help our work continue.
Leave a legacy of kindness and care
Gifts in Wills fund expert palliative care and grief support for thousands of people, making up a third of our fundraising income.
We believe that how we die matters.
655,000
Last year we delivered more than 655,000 hours of end-of-life care. A gift in your Will could help provide expert care for future generations.
We’re working towards a future where everyone can access expert care from the moment of a terminal diagnosis, through the end of life and in the difficult times that follow a bereavement.
A gift in your Will this Remember a Charity Week is a powerful way to help build that future.
Making your wishes clear for loved ones
Writing your Will and keeping it up to date is a caring way to give those closest to you peace of mind and make your wishes clear.
Nobody wants their loved ones to be left guessing, “What would they have wanted?”
Once you’ve provided for the people closest to you, your Will can also reflect the causes that matter most to you.

Jo and Brian's story
“After my husband was diagnosed with a brain tumour, we couldn’t have coped without the support of the Sue Ryder team. At the worst time of my life, they made it feel bearable.”
The Sue Ryder team treated Brian with such dignity and respect.
Jo decided to leave a gift to Sue Ryder in her Will, so other families could benefit from the care that made such a difference to them.
Why leave a gift in your Will to Sue Ryder?
Across the UK, the need for palliative and end‑of‑life care is rising and more people are facing grief feeling alone.
Every day, Sue Ryder is alongside people through terminal illness, dying, and grieving. But we want to prevent more people falling through the cracks – from the moment of diagnosis right to the end.
A gift in your Will is a legacy of kindness and care, ensuring expert support is there for everyone who needs it - now and for generations to come. Your gift helps ensure no one faces the end of life without the hope, dignity and kindness they deserve.
Last year, gifts in Wills helped provide hundreds of thousands of hours of expert care.
Your legacy could help us reach more people in the years ahead.
