Leave a Gift to Nature in Your Will

Warwickshire Wildlife Trust is dedicated to wildlife conservation. Making a gift to them when you write or update your will is a very special way of ensuring they can continue to do this.

Be part of a Wilder Warwickshire

The natural world gives us so much. 

From memorable wildlife encounters to peaceful walks in nature and increased wellness, green spaces and wild places enrich our lives every day. 

After taking care of your loved ones, a gift of any size can help restore habitats, bring wildlife back, inspire people to take action and create a future where nature is thriving. 

Many people choose to leave a gift in their Will because nature has been an important part of their lives. Leaving a gift to Warwickshire Wildlife Trust in your Will is an incredible way to help us to protect Warwickshire’s most threatened wildlife and restore local wild places for the future.  

Gifts in Wills allow us to take on ambitious projects, care for wildlife over the long term and respond to the ever-increasing challenges facing our natural world.

Your Will Could Help Us To:

By choosing to leave a gift in your Will, you will be passing on your love of nature so future generations can experience that same joy, whilst protecting the wildlife, landscapes and special places that matter most to you. 

Here is a list of ways your Will could help us to create a wilder Warwickshire:

  • Create more space for wildlife to thrive 

     

  • Restore habitats such as meadows, wetlands and woodlands 

     

  • Protect the places wildlife and people depend on 

     

  • Help threatened species recover 

     

  • Inspire more people to take action for nature 
A few words from you can mean a new nature reserve is purchased, a rare habitat is secured or simply that people who have the skills and passion to protect wildlife can go on doing so in your local area.

Leaving a gift is simple 

There are many ways you can support Warwickshire Wildlife Trust through a gift in your Will: 

  • Residuary Gift: a share of your estate, also known as a residuary gift. This is a percentage of your estate after family, friends and other commitments have been provided for. 
  • Pecuniary Gift: a gift of a specific sum of money, also known as a pecuniary gift.  
  • Assets: a particular asset, such as land, property, shares or another valuable item. 

Whatever you choose, your gift will help create a lasting impact for wildlife and future generations.
