The spirit of Calvert Giving

Fundraise your way...

Put the 'fun' in fundraising

Give a lasting gift

Legacy giving is a deeply personal decision.

Whether you are considering your will or how best to mark a loved one’s passing, we are incredibly grateful that you are considering a legacy gift.

Through a gift in your will, you will enable those with the most complex and profound disabilities to experience the joy and life-enhancing benefits of the Calvert Experience. A legacy to the Lake District Calvert Trust ensures that the impact of your generosity will endure for many years to come.

Together we can build a better future for those with disabilities.

How can you help?

Why not write your will with our free will writing service?
 
We are pleased to launch a free online will writing service which is available through our trusted partners, Farewill. The online service will take 30 minutes and is suitable for essential will needs, for those living in England and Wales. Visit the Fairwill website to find out more.
 
Whilst there is no obligation to include a gift in your will, we hope you will consider leaving a gift to the Lake District Calvert Trust once your loved ones are provided for.
You can also make your will over the phone with one of Farewill’s specialists. The service is available throughout the UK, offering support for complex needs and personal guidance from specialists. To book an appointment click here
