Leave a legacy

Remembering the Heart Cell Foundation in your Will is a perfect way to leave a legacy while ensuring we can continue to develop one of the most important advances in the treatment of heart disease.

Drafting or changing your Will demands care to ensure your loved ones are provided for and your exact wishes are carried out. You should therefore always consult a solicitor. But once you have decided that you want to include a good cause in your Will, the process is straightforward.

You can bequeath a fixed amount of money or a specific item such as jewellery, or leave the remainder of your assets after providing for your loved ones. However you decide to help, your legacy will always be appreciated.

Payroll giving

One-off donations are an excellent way of supporting the Heart Cells Foundation, but a tax-effective way is through regular or one-off donations through the company payroll.

Donations are automatically deducted from the employee’s pay and because the donation is taken before tax is calculated, less tax is taken from the donor.
