Leave a Lasting Legacy
Help Protect the Close for Generations to Come
Salisbury Cathedral Close is one of England’s most remarkable historic places. Its beautiful buildings, green spaces and peaceful surroundings have been enjoyed by generations of residents and visitors. But places like this cannot be taken for granted. They need people who care about their future.
By remembering the Salisbury Cathedral Close Preservation Society in your will, you can help ensure that the Close remains a place of beauty, history and enjoyment for generations to come.
A gift to the future
For many years, the Society has worked to protect and enhance the special character of Salisbury Cathedral Close and its surroundings. We believe that caring for the Close means not only preserving its historic buildings and landscape, but also ensuring that change respects its character and serves the wider public interest.
A gift in your will would help us continue this work, supporting informed research, public engagement and, where necessary, campaigns to protect this exceptional place.
Whether large or small, every legacy can make a difference.
How to Leave a Gift
Leaving a gift to the Society is straightforward. You can ask your solicitor or will writer to include a gift when making or updating your will. There are two common ways to give:
- A share of your estate: A percentage of what remains after other gifts, expenses and obligations have been met.
- A fixed sum: A particular amount of money of your choosing.
You may wish to provide for family and friends first. Any gift you then choose to leave to the Society would be greatly appreciated.
To help your solicitor identify the correct charity, please provide the following details:
Full legal name: Salisbury Cathedral Close Preservation Society
Registered charity number: 1015692
Gifts left to UK charities are generally exempt from Inheritance Tax and, in certain circumstances, charitable gifts can reduce the rate of Inheritance Tax payable on the rest of an estate. Your solicitor or professional adviser can explain how the rules may apply to your circumstances.
Our Promise to You
We understand that making a will is a personal matter. If you choose to remember the Society:
- We will respect your wishes and your privacy.
- You are under no obligation to tell us about your intentions.
- Any gift will be used to further the Society’s charitable purposes.
- You may change your will at any time.
