Give a Gift

We support bereaved children and their families in Plymouth and the immediate surrounding area since 1995 and this is only possible because of your donations. One way to help us keep the program going is to leave us a legacy in your will.

It is never easy to think about what will happen after ones death. But in making a will you have a chance to give those, you want help. You can provide for those closest to you and - if you wish - also support the work of Jeremiah's Journey.

A legacy is a great way to support a cause so that the work can go on.

Although making a will is very straightfoward, and usually doesn't cost much, we always recommend that you consult a solicitor, to make sure your will is legally valid. There are just six simple steps to making your will.

calculate the value of everything you own:

• Property (home, holiday home, furniture, jewellery, car etc.)
• Financial (bank accounts, stocks & shares, pension, life assurance etc.)
• Money you owe (outstanding mortgage, loans, overdrafts, credit cards etc.)
• Money you are owed

choose the people you want to carry out your wishes:

• Solicitor, friends or relatives
• decide who will benefit from your will
• choose a solicitor
• keep your will safe
• review your will regularly and update if necessary.

Many personal documents affect the making of your will. It is worth checking that you have the following papers and that they are kept in a safe place.

• Your will
• Birth certificate
• Marriage/divorce details
• Property/mortgage deeds
• Pension/insurance details
• Bank/building society details

Every legacy left to Jeremiah's Journey is used wisely - and makes a real difference to bereaved children. Whenever a child wishes there was someone to talk to, there is. We are committed to keeping administration costs to an absolute minimum so, however large or small, you can be sure your gift will be put to good use.

Please let us know that you have included Jeremiah's Journey, as this enables us to plan for the future.
