Leave a Legacy Gift to BBC Children in Need

Donate to our charity in your will and make a lasting impact on the lives of the UK’s children

Giving to charity in your will is a wonderful way to ensure that your kindness and compassion lives on.

BBC Children in Need supports children and young people in communities right across the UK, tackling a spectrum of challenges that stand in the way of healthy childhood – such as poverty, mental health and inequality – to create a significant impact in every region.

That’s why, if you’re exploring the best charities for which to leave a gift in your will, you should consider making a legacy donation to our cause.

Legacy Giving with Farewill

We are able to offer a free will-writing service through the award-winning organisation Farewill, making it far easier for our supporters to leave legacy gifts in wills.

Farewill simplifies the whole process of planning what will happen to your estate after you’re gone, and looks at the process with positivity and a focus on affordability and accessibility. You can find out more about their brilliant services below.

Make an Enduring Impact

Right now, BBC Children in Need is only able to fund 1 in 8 organisations who ask us for help. The kindness and generosity of your legacy gift will help us continue to support amazing people in family centres, community spaces, youth clubs and refuges, homeless shelters, hospices and helplines.

Our work is delivered across England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, in communities just like yours. It sees food, clothing and beds supplied to children living without, support offered to young people struggling with anxiety, isolation or grief, mentorship delivered to teenagers facing inequality, violence or lack of opportunity and respite provided to children living with serious illness or disability, or carrying a load that’s just too heavy to manage alone.

Your support matters more than ever before. Leaving a gift in your will, no matter the size, to our charity can help us ensure that every child has the chance to thrive and be the best they can be, well into the future.
