Leaving a gift in your Will is a meaningful way to support West Wight Sports and Community Centre on the Isle of Wight, helping ensure our facilities, services and community support continue for future generations.

A legacy gift allows you to make a lasting difference to the West Wight community, supporting health, well‑being, connection and opportunity—while still taking care of those closest to you.

Even a small contribution can have a powerful impact.

A residual gift is one of the most flexible and popular ways to leave a legacy.

It means leaving a percentage of your estate after loved ones and specific gifts have been provided for. For example, you might choose to leave 1%–5%, or another amount that feels right for you.

This approach means your gift naturally adjusts over time and helps ensure your loved ones remain your priority, while still supporting a cause you care about.

Make a Lasting Impact

Your gift helps ensure that West Wight Sports and Community Centre can continue to offer inclusive facilities, activities and support for the community.

Low‑Risk and Flexible

A residual gift reflects your circumstances at the time and does not fix you to a set amount, giving you peace of mind.

Create a Positive Legacy

Leaving a gift is a way to be remembered for supporting something that strengthens the community and benefits others for years to come.

Support Community Well‑Being

Your contribution helps improve access to health, activity and social connection across West Wight.

Gifts left to registered charities in the UK are currently exempt from Inheritance Tax, meaning more of your contribution goes directly towards supporting the Centre.

In some cases, leaving a charitable gift can also reduce the overall rate of Inheritance Tax applied to your estate.

(We recommend seeking professional advice for your individual circumstances.)

Legacy donations support a wide range of work at West Wight Sports and Community Centre, including:

• Maintaining accessible community facilities
• Supporting health and well‑being initiatives
• Providing activities for all ages and abilities
• Reducing isolation and supporting local connections
• Ensuring the long‑term sustainability of the Centre

Your support helps keep these services available for generations to come.

Including a gift in your Will is straightforward. You can:

• Speak with your solicitor or Will‑writer
• Decide on the type of gift (e.g. a percentage of your estate)
• Include the details of West Wight Sports and Community Centre
