How to leave a gift in your will
to RSPCA Coventry and District

Leaving a gift in your will, or a legacy, is an amazing thing to do. If you choose to support the RSPCA Coventry and District branch, we will be incredibly grateful. Any contribution, small or large, makes a difference to our branch and helps us support more animals each year.

We recommend using a solicitor to write or update your will. We can help by providing wording to include within your will so that you can be assured your gift goes to our branch and your community directly. Email emma.davies@rspca-coventryanddistrict.org.uk or keep on reading for the wording to use.

A legacy to the RSPCA Coventry and District Branch CIO will provide crucial funds. We could not carry out our work without such generous support. You can do this by making a Will or by adding a Codicil (a document which specifies alterations to your Will).

If you are making a Will, please remember that the RSPCA Coventry and District Branch and all the other RSPCA branches are separately registered charities. So, if you would like our work to benefit animals in your local area, we would respectfully suggest that your legacy reads:

What wording to use in your will:

I give the sum of £……. (or specify a share of residue) to the RSPCA Coventry and District Branch, Registered Charitable Incorporated Organisation Number 1208493, for its general purposes and I declare that the receipt of the Honorary Treasurer or other proper officer of the said Branch for the time being shall be a full and sufficient discharge for the said legacy.

Are you a Solicitor?

We would love to hear from Probate Solicitors that we can recommend to our supporters.

Why leave a gift or a legacy to RSPCA Coventry and District?

By leaving a gift to our branch, you can be assured that your funds are going directly to help the animals in your community. Any contribution you can make, large or small, makes a difference:

  • A £100 left to RSPCA Coventry and District in your will will help us care for one of our animals for one month 
  • A £1000 left to RSPCA Coventry and District can help us buy new vet equipment for own animals and those of our community 
  • A larger sum can help us expand the centre and provide the best care to our animals such as expanding our cattery

We also welcome conversations about other gifts to leave such as stocks, shares, pensions or valuable items. Email emma.davies@rspca-coventryanddistrict.org.uk to start a conversation.
