Talk to us about your will

If you’re thinking about leaving a gift to Back Up, our friendly team are here to help. We always recommend seeing a solicitor if you’re thinking of writing or amending your will, but we can help with any questions you might have.

We can discuss how you might like your gift to be spent or arrange a visit to a local spinal centre so you can see the difference your legacy will make. We can explain the different types of legacy gifts and their benefits, talk you through our will-writing offers and help you find a solicitor.
