Gifts in Wills
Request your gifts in Wills guide
A gift in your Will provides vital lifelong support to future ex-Servicemen and women living with sight loss.
At Blind Veterans UK we provide support for life, through rehabilitation and training, practical advice, and emotional support. Established in 1915, we are the country’s leading provider of specialist and bespoke rehabilitation for vision impairment. We have the experience and expertise to help blind veterans regain their independence and live the life they choose.
To continue our work, we depend on the generosity of supporters like you. Gifts in Wills fund the support for five in ten of our veterans.
Thank you for your interest in leaving a gift in your Will to build a better future for those who have served our country.
“Gifts in Wills change the lives of blind veterans.”
