Leave a gift in your Will and create a lasting legacy

Every day in the UK, 250 people begin to lose their sight. Too often, this also means missing opportunities and losing independence. A gift in your Will can help blind and partially sighted people access the support they need to live life with confidence and hope.

Why gifts in wills matter

Gifts in Wills fund more than a third of RNIB’s work. They help us:

  • provide practical and emotional support for people adjusting to or living with sight loss
  • build skills that empower people to live independent lives
  • campaign for equal participation in homes, workplaces, and communities.

Your legacy will help us build a world without barriers for blind and partially sighted people.

Help make a difference like Joyce

We’re very grateful to people like Joyce, who chose to remember RNIB with a gift in her Will. Gifts like Joyce’s keep us going.

Joyce’s children were both born with Leber congenital amaurosis (LCA). RNIB was here to support her family over the years – from using our sight loss services to support and advice from our Helpline.

“I hope my legacy gift to RNIB will support parents coming to terms with their children’s diagnosis, giving them somewhere to turn for help and just having someone there to listen.”
