Why we need your support  

By leaving a gift in your Will to The Salvation Army, your compassion and kindness will live on. Gifts in Wills fund half of our donated income, meaning that they are vital for us to carry out the life-changing work that we do. 

You will enable us to be there for future generations and to be there for those who need us the most. We care for thousands of people every day who might otherwise feel excluded, face loneliness and isolation or experience homelessness.
