Leave a gift in your will

A Will is one of the most important document you will ever write and can be complicated so please see some key information below about what you can expect from the process and different types of gifts you could leave.

You will be making a lasting difference for Dementia Concern and be supporting people living with dementia and thier carers for the future.

What is involved in the process?

  • Work out your estate

    Before you meet with a solicitor it is good practice to work out the size of your estate. This can be done by making a list of what you own and owe to establish the estate then you can work out what you can leave to friends, family or a cause close to your heart.

  • Find and talk to a solicitor

    For a new Will it is important to seek legal advice to ensure the will you are writing is legal and how you want it. If you already have a Will but wish to update or amend it we advise to also speak to a solicitor to ensure any changes are implemented correctly.

  • Remembering Dementia Concern in your Will

    Your Solicitor will ask you what type of gift you would like to leave the charity (see Types of gift page) and for the specific charity details which are:


    Charity Name: Dementia Concern
    Registered Charity Number: 1014834
    Address: 223 Windmill Road, Ealing, London, W5 4DJ

  • Executors and witnesses

    An executor is the person you wish to carry out the terms of the Will. This can be the solicitor or a family member and can include someone named in the Will. Once the Will is complete you will need two witnesses who are independent and do not benefit from the Will to witness your signature.

  • Thank you

    If you choose to leave Dementia Concern a gift in your Will and are happy to inform us then we would love to hear from you so we can thank you for your generous gift.
