Thank you for considering leaving a gift in your will to Southmead Hospital Charity.
Every gift makes a life-changing difference. Even leaving a small percentage of your estate, after taking care of loved ones, could have a lasting impact on the care that we can provide for the community – including your friends and family, after you’re gone.
From buying cutting-edge equipment and funding world-leading research to creating healing spaces, your gift will be used to give every patient the extraordinary care they deserve.

Thinking about making a will is something that lots of us put off, for all sorts of reasons.
To make it easier, we’ve teamed up with Octopus Legacy to offer our supporters a free will writing service. You can make your will online, over the phone, or face-to-face with local solicitors.
It takes as little as 15 minutes, and this service provides access to expert advice to answer any questions you have while considering making or updating your will.
Octopus Legacy (formerly Guardian Angel) was started to help people plan for death and find support following a loss.
Following the loss of his mother in 2016, company founder Sam came up with the idea of making a secure and private online service specially designed to help families through these hard times.
Over a third of the funding for our new state-of-the-art robotic microscope for neurosurgery came from people who left a gift in their will to Southmead Hospital.
If you’re overseeing a legacy gift to Southmead Hospital, please find all the details you need on our information page for solicitors and executors.
