Four local charities have banded together to launch a campaign to encourage more people to leave money to local charities in their wills.
The Heartfelt Legacy Campaign unites St Ann's Hospice, Henshaw's Society for Blind People, The Together Trust and the Christie Hospital in one common aim: to highlight that legacies are vital in helping these local charities to carry on their important work helping local people.
On our website www.heart-felt.org.uk you will find information about all four causes and details about how you can help by leaving a gift in your will. More details are also available by ringing a message service on 0161 446 3614.
Sue Nicholls, aka Audrey Roberts in Coronation Street, is endorsing the campaign and recently met up with representatives of each charity on set. Sue commented “It is fantastic to see local charities working together to promote how vital it is that people make a Will. It is important at almost any time of life and it’s incredible that only 1 in 3 people actually do make a Will.”
Sue continued by saying “The Heartfelt Legacy Campaign highlights how local charities rely heavily on Gifts in Wills to carry on their excellent work helping local people. I would encourage everybody to start the New Year by making a Will or updating your existing one and also consider supporting a local charity”.
