The legacy we leave reflects our values and the lasting impact we can have on our communities. By leaving a gift to charity in your Will, you help ensure that vital work continues for generations to come.
For Essex & Herts Air Ambulance (EHAAT), legacy gifts are a lifeline, funding 1 in 4 missions. Every gift, no matter its size, plays a crucial role—enabling highly skilled critical care teams to deliver pre-hospital treatments across Essex, Hertfordshire, and beyond.
As Carmel Hudson, EHAAT’s Legacy Manager, explains, “Every gift, large or small, makes an incredible difference. Together, they help us save lives and provide critical care to those in need. They are lasting legacies that will always be remembered.”
Beyond funding missions, a gift in your Will is a deeply personal way to make a lasting impact. It ensures your values live on, helping future generations receive life-saving care. Legacy gifts are also tax-free, and if you donate more than 10% of your net estate, Inheritance Tax reduces from 40% to 36%, meaning more of your estate can benefit loved ones while supporting a cause close to your heart.
Today, only half of UK adults have a Will, often believing the process is complex or costly. In reality, making a Will is simple and gives you peace of mind.
With limited government funding and no National Lottery funding, EHAAT relies on generous supporters. Your legacy gift could be someone’s lifeline—helping a patient recover, return home, and enjoy more precious moments.
