Thank you for your interest in supporting our life-changing work with a gift in your Will. We could not deliver our services without people like you.
Leaving a gift in your will means we can keep supporting people to transform their lives.
Since 1991, our services have supported thousands of people to make changes and create better lives with jobs, family, friends, and a sense of community.
Your gift enables us to keep working with some of the most marginalised people in society. With your support, our services allow us to provide a second chance to future generations of people whose challenges root them in unhealthy lifestyles they are unable to escape without outside help.
We know that including The Forward Trust in your will is a big decision.
Your family and loved ones come first, but a gift of any size makes a huge difference to us - and those we support.
To learn more about how you can create your legacy by leaving a gift in your will for The Forward Trust, please contact our fundraising team to receive your free copy of our Free Will Guide.
Without a will, the government decides how your estate is distributed. This can cause unnecessary stress and complexity for your loved ones. Having a will ensures your wishes are known and respected – and delivered upon.
Although the idea of a will - no matter what age we are - can sound a bit scary, writing or updating it doesn’t have to be complicated. That’s why we’ve partnered with Kwil – a free online or over-the-phone will-writing service. Kwil offer expert, professional support to help you create a legally binding will.
Rest assured, if using Kwil's services, you don’t have to include a gift to The Forward Trust in your will.
You can write your will in these three easy steps:

If you’ve already decided to leave a gift to The Forward Trust – thank you. While it’s entirely up to you whether you let us know you plan to do this, knowing about your pledge helps us to plan for the future.
We’d also love the opportunity to thank you and to keep you updated about how your legacy makes a difference. So if you’re comfortable, please get in touch with our team and let us know your preferences.
If you're named as the executor of a Will with a gift to The Forward Trust, we’re here to support you. Please get in touch and consider leaving a message about your loved one on our Remembrance Wall.
