Legacy Gifting

Leave a legacy and help us reach more women and families for generations to come. 

Making a Will is an opportunity to decide what happens to your money, property and possessions after your death and ensures that your wishes are clear to your loved ones. 

Leaving a gift to the Breastfeeding Network in your Will is a positive step to ensure that your values, beliefs and passions can live on after your death.  

How will my donation be used for BfN? 

As a charity, our essential running costs and all of our projects and services rely heavily on donations. 

Much of the standard funding we receive has to be used for specific, restricted areas of our work such as areas in which we deliver NHS commissioned services. With donations such as gifts in Wills we have more flexibility in deciding how the money is used. This will enable us to reach more women and families, when and where they need us.  

You might choose to leave a set amount or a percentage gift (or share of your estate).  It is advisable that you speak to a professional solicitor or Will-writer.  

 Whatever the amount, your legacy could make a big difference to our charity in the longer term.  These donations are vital in supporting all elements of our charity including our projects, programmes and services and we thank you for considering gifting to the Breastfeeding Network in your Will.  

How do I include BfN in my Will? 

To include the Breastfeeding Network in your Will, simply give your solicitor or Will-writer the following details: 

Charity name: The Breastfeeding Network UK 

Charity address: Unit 49, Sir James Clark Building, Abbeymill Business Centre, Seedhill, Paisley, PA1 1TJ
