A Gift That Keeps Growing, Long After You've Let Go
Once the people you love are provided for, a gift in your Will, even a small share of what's left, can give a student the start they need.
Free online Will through our partner Everywill. No obligation.
A tutor comes on Tuesday afternoons now. A student who'd stopped believing she could catch up has started to. Nobody decided that by accident. Someone, years ago, decided to give.
A Start in Life has been the reason for moments like this since 1923.
Where are you up to?
The shape your gift can take
- A share of your estate
A residual or percentage gift, once the people you love are provided for. It helps us plan furthest ahead.
- A specific gift
A set amount, decided today and unaffected by anything else in your estate.
- A gift of assets
Shares, property or other items of value, given directly.
There's no wrong choice. Only the one that fits what you're able to give.

The shape your gift can take
A residual or percentage gift
A share of your estate, once the people you love are provided for. This is the gift that helps us plan furthest ahead, because it grows or steadies alongside everything else you own.
A specific gift
A set amount, decided today and unaffected by anything else in your estate.
A gift of assets
Shares, property or other items of value, given directly rather than converted first.
There's no wrong choice among these. Only the one that fits what you're able to give.
