Making a gift in your Will can help us fund pioneering medical research for years to come. Your kindness today could help transform the future lives of babies and children.
Making the decision to leave a gift in your Will could be one of the most important decisions of your life as it could help fund our next medical breakthrough. We’ve already helped to develop the UK polio vaccine, ultrasound scanning in pregnancy and established the link between folic acid and the prevention of spina bifida. Just think what your gift could help us do next.
If you have already made a Will it is easy to add a codicil (a document that adds to or alters a Will) leaving a gift to Action Medical Research. Your solicitor can draw this up for you. It is signed in the same manner as a Will, and placed with your Will.
Now I'm 80, my children have grown up and, like so many, I have a valuable property and live a comfortable life.
I believe it's people like us who should make wills that benefit Action Medical Research. This way, their valuable contribution to the future of so many people is guaranteed.
Mr D Mahy, who has pledged a gift to Action Medical Research.
