We know 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.

As a UK-registered charity, leaving a gift in your Will has the opportunity to truly transform and save lives.

Since 1991, we’ve been able to provide support to more than 925,000 vulnerable people. Many of which go on to inspire others, showing that rehabilitation and recovery are possible.

Your gift enables us to keep fighting the ongoing fight challenging the stigma attached to all areas of our work: addiction, homelessness, unemployment and life during and after prison. It allows us to offer a healthier, better-lived life, and second chance to future generations of people whose challenges root them in unhealthy lifestyles they are unable to escape from without outside help.

The importance of writing a Will - why should I do this?

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.

Once your loved ones are provided for, we hope that you will be in a financial position to consider a gift to us - whatever you can afford.
