Create your very own legacy for wildlife
Nature Protected for Future Generations
When you leave a gift in your Will to Natural World Fund, you ensure your love for the natural world continues long into the future. Your legacy can help restore precious habitats, protect vulnerable species, and preserve biodiversity across the UK.
Why Leave a Gift
Create an enduring impact
Gifts in wills enable us to plan and deliver long-term restoration projects with confidence.
Support what matters most
Your gift can fund habitat restoration, species protection or wherever the need is greatest.
Every gift makes a difference
Whether big or small, your gift helps ensure that nature is protected and thrives for future generations.
How It Works
Choose The type of gift To Leave
You can choose to leave a specific sum of money, a share of your estate, property or other assets, or a combination of the above.
Appoint Your Will executors
Executors are the people who will carry out the instructions in your Will. Choose people you trust, or seek legal advice if you’re unsure.
Estimate the value And tax
Understand your estate’s value, and the inheritance tax rules. Gifts to registered charities are often exempt or beneficial under UK tax law.
Write or update your Will
You can engage a solicitor or use a reputable Will-writing service. If you already have a Will, a “codicil” may suffice for simple changes.
Keep your Will In A sEcure Place
Store a copy in a secure place, letting your executors know where it is. Review it if your circumstances change (e.g. assets or preferences).
Suggested Wording
If you’d like help with preparing the language to include Natural World Fund in your Will, here’s some suggested wording:
“I give ____ (a fixed amount / a percentage / the residue of my estate) to Natural World Fund (Registered Charity No. 1214498), of 2 Diamond Cottages Barnett Lane, Wonersh, Guildford, Surrey, GU5 0RU for its charitable purposes. I declare that the receipt of any trustee or other authorised officer shall be a full and sufficient discharge to my executors.”
Feel free to adapt the wording with a legal professional to match your own estate’s situation.
