Leave a gift in your will

Leaving a gift in your will is a powerful way to support us. It helps ensure we’re here for future generations of the banking community through life’s toughest moments.

How to write your will for free

If you don’t yet have a will, you’re not alone – more than half of UK adults (57%) haven’t written one. It’s the sort of task many of us put off, yet it’s essential to ensure your wishes are carried out, your loved ones are looked after, and any stress or conflict is avoided later on. It also brings real peace of mind.

To make it simple, we’ve partnered with estate planning experts Octopus Legacy to offer a free will-writing service. You can do it online*, over the phone or by video call — whichever suits you best.

Click here to get started, or call Octopus Legacy on 020 4525 3605 and mention Bank Workers Charity to claim your free will.

To discover more about how donating can leave a lasting impact on your community, download our legacy pack.

*Available in England and Wales only
