With hundreds of thousands out of work and many more experiencing drastic wage cuts, charities and the work they do have never been as important as they are now
Charities are at the centre of our society, providing a crucial safety net for those who are most in need, but without public generosity and goodwill, charities would be unable to assist vulnerable people, complete medical research, look after abandoned pets, or perform other vital services. According to Smee & Ford, an institution which specialises in legacy management in the UK, it is estimated that gifts in wills make up about a third of a charity's voluntary income.
As Covid-19 wreaks a destructive path among our lives and economies, leaving a small legacy to a chosen charity can make a huge difference for not only this generation but future generations.
