Let your Legacy be Hope

Become a Beacon of Hope with Beatson Cancer Charity.

Did you know that in the West of Scotland, 1 in 2 people will be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime? For those navigating this challenging journey, Beatson Cancer Charity stands as a beacon of hope. We are a community of unwavering support, committed to funding outstanding patient care and pioneering research for cancer treatment and prevention. 

Nearly all our funding comes from individuals, corporate sponsors, and other generous supporters. This means Beatson Cancer Charity relies on the kindness of people like you. Legacy giving, often made through Wills and trusts, is crucial to our long-term stability. By leaving a gift in your Will, you directly contribute to funding exceptional patient care and cutting-edge research, significantly improving the lives of thousands of people affected by cancer in the years ahead. 

Join us in building an enduring legacy of hope for future generations. 

How do I include Beatson Cancer Charity in my will?

You can include planned giving in your Will at the time of writing, or if you already have a Will, you can instruct your solicitor to add a codicil detailing your updated wishes. Leaving a gift in your Will to a charity requires only a few details: our charity name, charity number, and registered address, along with the details of your planned giving bequest. 

• Charity Name: Beatson Cancer Charity 

• Scottish Charity Number: SCO44442 

• Registered Address:  Beatson Cancer Charity, The Beatson West of Scotland Cancer Centre, 1053 Great Western Road, Glasgow, G12 0YN. 

While there is no obligation to leave Beatson Cancer Charity a gift in your Will, we sincerely hope that after taking care of your loved ones, you’ll consider allocating a gift to us. Help Beatson Cancer Charity shape the future with your legacy.

Did you Know? 

• Legacy giving makes up more than 15% of charitable giving. Gifts in Wills provide long-term stability for Beatson Cancer Charity and are crucial for us to continue providing much-needed enhancements to patient care and funding cutting-edge research for the treatment and prevention of cancer. 
• You can leave as little or as much as you like. It’s possible to leave a legacy that benefits both your loved ones and a charity. Consider dividing your estate into percentages.
