It's not a decision to take lightly, but it can make a tremendous difference, so please read the following carefully. If you still have questions, or would like to talk about how your gift could be used, please contact us via

What is Legacy Giving?

A gift in a will is a way of leaving something to a person or group after you die. This gift can take different forms - money, part of your estate, or belongings. When creating a will, many people choose to leave most of their money/possessions to family and close friends, and if they have a personal connection to a cause - a charity close to their heart.

How does it help?

Leaving a gift in your will gives us the security to plan ahead with confidence and the resources to aim bigger for the people we support.

Your legacy could:

Fund a research student working towards better treatments for GBS.
Provide emotional support to those diagnosed with CIDP in the future.
Help adapt a home for a person living with MMN, so they can stay independent.

A legacy gift doesn’t just support us, it supports our community for generations to come.

What kind of Gift can I leave?

There are two primary ways to include a Gift.

A Residuary Gift: A percentage share of your estate (money, property, possessions) once all other payments and Gifts have been made.

A Pecuniary Gift: A fixed amount of money

How much you leave is entirely up to you, if you'd like to talk to us about your gift and how it can be used, please reach out to us.

Anything you include to charity is free of Inheritance Tax. By including 10% of your estate to charity you can reduce the amount of Inheritance Tax you pay and support a cause close to your heart.

Make a Will Online

Creating a will has never been easier or more secure. We partner with Make a Will Online to give our supporters a simple and reliable way to put their wishes in writing.

You can begin your will at: www.makeawillonline.co.uk/inflammatoryneuropathiesuk

Every will is carefully reviewed by a fully qualified solicitor and you’ll have the opportunity to ask legal questions if anything is unclear. For added peace of mind, the service includes free access to Capacity Vault, helping protect your will and ensure your intentions are safely preserved for the future.

When to Consider Seeing a Solicitor in Person

While many people find an online will suits their needs, there are times when meeting a solicitor face to face may be the right choice. This includes situations where:

You already have a trusted solicitor you prefer to work with
You wish to adjust your current will to include Inflammatory Neuropathies UK
Your estate may be affected by inheritance tax: https://www.gov.uk/inheritance-tax
Your circumstances are more complex, such as owning overseas assets or setting up trusts
There are concerns around capacity, medication, or conditions such as dementia

You can find a qualified local solicitor through the Law Society: https://solicitors.lawsociety.org.uk

If you do make your will in person, please ensure your solicitor uses our full details:

Name:

Inflammatory Neuropathies UK
Registered charity number:

1154843 / SCO39900

Registered address:
Glennys Sanders House, Pride Parkway, Enterprise Park, Sleaford, Lincolnshire, NG34 8GL

Tell us you're leaving a Gift

Through Make a Will Online, unless you choose to be anonymous, we're notified when someone has opted to leave a kind Legacy (more on this below).

However, if you consult your own Solicitor we may not know. By telling us you're leaving a Gift, it allows us to factor those funds into future planning, and it lets us say - thank you!

Privacy and Your Choices

When you use our online will service, we receive limited information such as when a will is completed, the type of gift chosen, and basic contact details like your name, year of birth, email and address. This allows us, where you’ve given consent, to say thank you and keep in touch appropriately.

We completely respect that some supporters prefer to make a will and include a gift without sharing this with us. If you’d rather remain anonymous, you can use the online service here:

No matter how you choose to remember Inflammatory Neuropathies UK, we are deeply thankful for your generosity and support.
