Information for executors
If you’re an executor for someone who has left the RSPCA a gift in their Will, thank you for helping. Over half of our work with animals is funded by gifts in Wills, so we value your help in making it happen.
How to pay in a legacy gift
Following a payment being made, one of the Legacy Income Management Team will be in touch to ask any further questions and provide you with a receipt and thanks for this generous legacy gift. The names of all legacy supporters who choose to remember us in their Will are added to our Book of Remembrance in recognition of their support and commitment to animal welfare.
