Leave a Gift in Your Will
Making your Will is a deeply personal decision, but it’s important to think about.
It’s probably not as complicated as you think, and makes sure your wishes are carried out. If you are a parent with a child with Duchenne muscular dystrophy, this is even more important.
Your solicitor will be able to advise you on how best to plan for your child’s needs should the worst happen.
Once you have taken care of your loved ones, leaving a gift to Duchenne UK could change the future for people with Duchenne.
Why your gift matters
A gift in your Will will benefit thousands of families living with Duchenne by improving quality of life today and creating hope for tomorrow.
