Your Will can help the world
Every minute of every day, someone is helped by a Catholic charity.
Your Catholic Legacy brings together a group of Catholic charities working to inspire and encourage you to leave a gift in your Will to a Catholic good cause.
Whether they are a parent struggling to take care of their family in Newcastle or Nairobi, a parishioner finding hope in God’s word in Lymington or Lima, a prisoner or a patient, a priest retiring from his life of service, a seafarer thousands of miles from home or a community who have lost everything in a natural disaster, millions of people around the world depend on the support of Catholic organisations.
My wedding ring is a family heirloom. We are not sure who originally owned it, but it feels special that it is being passed down in this way

Catholic organisations rely upon the kindness of the Catholic community to fund their life-saving and life-changing work.
Legacies help to bring hope to thousands, life-saving aid to those most in need, and God’s love in times of crisis.
