Leave a gift in your Will

Help build a fairer society for future generations. Leave a gift in your will to help fund PLP’s vital work long into the future.

Robust, well considered and implemented law is crucial for a fair society. Public law enables public bodies to make good decisions that are lawful and just while upholding the rights of people from marginalised communities who might otherwise lack a voice. This is essential to enable everyone in our society to have the opportunity to thrive and prosper.   

However, serious threats risk undermining the rule of law for future generations. Increasing use of AI and automated decision making is reducing the accountability of public bodies, unmet environmental commitments and failure to address climate change related impacts risk devastating communities, and the rise of authoritarianism threatens our human rights, democracy, and constitution.

Leaving a gift in your will to PLP will help us meet these threats, now and long into the future. Remembering PLP in your Will provides us with crucial long-term support, enabling us to help the next generation access justice and challenge unlawful decisions.

The future is uncertain, but with your support there’s one thing we can guarantee – we will continue championing a fair and inclusive society secured by a just and confident state.

Why leave a gift in your Will? 

Writing your Will is a chance to consider your legacy. Having an up-to-date Will helps reduce the stress and confusion for your loved ones after you’re gone.  

As well as remembering friends and family, many people use this as an opportunity to support the causes they care about most. Gifts in Wills are amongst the most generous, most impactful forms of support received by UK charities. 

Bequests to the Public Law Project are also exempt from Inheritance Tax and may reduce the rate on tax on the rest of your estate. Your solicitor will be able to give you more information about Inheritance Tax.
