By leaving us a gift in your Will, you can make a huge difference to the people that our Hospice cares for and supports in your local area - our patients, their families, and their carers. Your gift will help us to continue to provide outstanding personalised care to those living with a terminal illness, whether in our Hospice, in a patient’s own home or in local residential homes nearby.

Gifts left in Wills are invaluable to us, however large or small. Last year we cared for over 1,700 patients and their families, which is only possible through the generosity of our local community.

Leaving a little means a lot

We understand that your family, loved ones and perhaps other causes close to your heart will be the focus of the legacy you leave. But by leaving just a very small gift or a tiny percentage of your estate to us, you can have a huge impact on our work, increasing the number of patients we can look after and ensuring that they enjoy the highest possible quality of life at the most difficult of times.

Leaving a gift in your Will is easy to do and your Solicitor will be able to include this in your Will for you. You will need our registered address and charity number:

Heart of Kent Hospice,

Registered Address: Preston Hall, Aylesford, Kent, ME20 7PU

Registered Charity No: 298164

We can also help answer any initial questions you may have and explain how your gift will be used. Call Elizabeth Thomas, Supporter Care Manager on 01622 792200 ext 362 for more information or email elizabeth.thomas@hokh.co.uk.

Make a Will month

For one month every year, local Solicitors donate their time in return for a suggested donation to the Hospice. More information on Make a Will month can be found on our Make a Will page or please email elizabeth.thomas@hokh.co.uk for further details.
