Legal Services (UK) Limited has teamed up with Children’s Liver Disease Foundation (CLDF), a unique national charity fighting life-threatening liver disease, to offer its supporters the opportunity to make or update their wills at a specially discounted fee.
CLDF is hoping that this special offer might encourage supporters to consider leaving a legacy to enable it to continue its vital work in research, education and family services.
What is a legacy?
A legacy is a gift of money or belongings left in a will to benefit other people or organisations such as charities. It is a means of providing for your loved ones and supporting the causes which are important to you.
Did you know…?
• At least two children are diagnosed with a life-threatening liver disease every day in the UK
• More children in the UK are currently diagnosed with a liver disease than childhood leukaemia
• Most childhood liver diseases are life threatening; all mean a lifetime of care
• There are over 100 different liver diseases that can affect babies, children or young people
• For most childhood liver diseases the causes are unknown
• Liver disease has no cure
Why leave a legacy to CLDF?
• CLDF is the only UK charity working exclusively on behalf of babies and children suffering from liver disease
• It funds vital research into treatments and cures for childhood liver conditions
• CLDF provides information and practical support to families when they need it most
• CLDF is independent and can speak on behalf of children and families to government and the Department of Health
• CLDF has achieved a great deal - but much more remains to be done
• A legacy is a tax-free way to make a significant gift to charity
