Legacy
Why not leave a legacy to Nordoff-Robbins? Once you have made provisions for those closest to you, leaving a gift will help to provide music therapy to children and adults isolated by trauma, disability and stress beyond your lifetime.
To a small charity like Nordoff-Robbins Music Therapy, that needs to raise all its funds from scratch every year, the donation of a legacy in your will is an important and lasting gift.
There are four legacies that you could choose to leave:
Residuary legacy – a share of the remainder of your estate after all other payments have been met.
Pecuniary legacy – a fixed sum of money that has been specified in your will.
Gift legacy – This legacy allows you to leave anything in your possession that you feel is relevant to Nordoff-Robbins, such as musical instruments that could be used in therapy sessions or the copyright to any songs that you wrote or own.
Reversionary legacy - A reversionary legacy allows you to leave a gift to a loved one for use during his or her lifetime, and then it will pass on to a specified person or charity after this time.
Donation in loving memory
You may want to request that well-wishers make a donation to Nordoff-Robbins Music Therapy in your memory, perhaps instead of buying flowers.
