Gifts in Wills
Request your gifts in Wills guide
Thank you for your interest in leaving a gift in your Will to build a better future for those who have served our country.
At Blind Veterans UK, we provide practical and emotional support for life through rehabilitation and training. Established in 1915, we have long experience of helping blind veterans regain their independence and live the life they choose.
Gifts in Wills fund the support of five in ten of our veterans. So, to continue our work, we depend on the generosity of supporters like you.
A gift in your Will provides vital lifelong support to ex-Servicemen and women living with sight loss into the future.
“Gifts in Wills change the lives of blind veterans.”
Billy lost his sight during his service in Bosnia after contracting an infection while supporting the exhumations of mass graves. In this short video, he describes how gifts in Wills have helped him rebuild his life.
