At Steps, we see every day the difference that the right support, encouragement and belief can make. We see children discovering what they can achieve, adults gaining confidence and families finding hope and understanding. Behind every one of these moments are people who care about making a difference.
By remembering Steps in your Will, you can become part of that story for generations to come.
A legacy gift is a very personal way of supporting something that matters to you. It could help provide specialist equipment, support our sessions, give extra families access to our services or simply help ensure that Steps is here for those who need us in the future.
You may never meet the person whose life your gift will touch, but you can know that you have helped give them the opportunity to achieve more than their family perhaps thought possible.
After taking care of the people closest to you, please consider leaving a gift to Steps in your Will.
Whatever you choose to leave, your generosity could create a lasting legacy of opportunity, confidence and hope.
By leaving a gift to Steps Conductive Education Centre in your Will, you can help ensure that children with motor disorders and disabilities like cerebral palsy and Down syndrome continue to have access to the specialist support, encouragement and opportunities they need to reach their full potential.
Whatever the size of your gift, it can make a real difference. And because a charitable legacy can be exempt from Inheritance Tax, leaving a gift to Steps may also have tax benefits for your estate.
You don’t have to be wealthy to leave a legacy. Once you have provided for your loved ones, even a small bequest or percentage of your estate can have a significant impact.
If you already have a Will, adding a gift to Steps may be straightforward. If you don’t yet have a Will, we strongly recommend speaking to a solicitor or qualified Will-writing professional who can advise you.
Please consider remembering Steps in your Will. Your kindness today could help transform someone’s tomorrow.
