Leave a lasting legacy

Making a legacy to the RCVS Charitable Trust is a powerful way to ensure that advances in veterinary science and understanding, improvements in care and treatment of all animals, protection of our public health and our environment, can continue long into the future.
“People need to have confidence in a charity before they leave money to it in their Will - it is a big decision. For me, the RCVS Charitable Trust was my chosen charity because I was inspired by the scope of its innovative veterinary educational and animal welfare work. I have decided to leave a residual amount to the RCVS Charitable Trust in my Will. This is the most convenient way for me to support the excellent work of the Trust; what’s more, my gift will keep its value over time. I am confident that the Trust will make the very best use of my legacy in its grant-making and educational activities. This will allow me to 'give something back' to the veterinary profession and invest in its future.”
Dr Wendy Harrison

Legacy Information Form
If you would like more advice or help about making or changing your Will, please complete this form.
Make a Pledge
Gifts left in wills are really important to RCVS Charitable Trust. However even if you haven't made a will, making a pledge to do so in the future would really help us to find out about your future intentions.
Pledges are not legally binding so by filling out this form you are not committing yourself! You are simply allowing RCVS Charitable Trust to confidently estimate future support for their cause.
Leave a Legacy
If you have already made a will but you want to leave a legacy to a charity you can make an addition or change it without re-writing your current will. This addition is called a codicil.
To leave a legacy to RCVS Charitable Trust please download the codicil form below and take it along to your solicitor.
Please note however that this form is not legally binding on its own and has to be part of your main will. We advise you to seek the advice of a solicitor.
If you have any questions about leaving a legacy to us, please contact RCVS Charitable Trust directly – they will be happy to discuss this with you.
