In the moments we feel truly lost and helpless, hope is everything. Yet too often, those experiencing homelessness feel hopeless.
This is why a gift in your will to St Mungo’s is so meaningful: it isn’t just a quick fix; it is a lasting legacy of hope. Will you give the gift of hope today?
Leaving a gift of any size will provide hope for people rebuilding their lives. To leave a legacy to St Mungo’s, you just need our details below.

If you would like to include St Mungo’s in your will, you can create or update your will with any practising solicitor, or through our free will writing service. All you’ll need is our address and registered charity number, listed above.
You can contact your solicitor or use our free will writing service to update your will. If using the free service, enquire first about the changes you’d like, as some may incur a fee.
Through our free will writing service, you can speak with local solicitors who can help you write or update your will.
If your estate is worth more than £325,000, inheritance tax is usually charged at 40% for anything above this threshold. This may vary depending on the situation, so please check with your solicitor.
There are two potential tax benefits that could arise from leaving St Mungo’s a gift in your will. Firstly, charitable gifts are exempt from inheritance tax, so including a charitable gift in your estate would reduce the amount of tax due from the estate. Secondly, there is a tax reduction for those leaving 10% or more of their estate to charity. This reduced rate is typically 36%, as opposed to 40%.
You can personalise a gift in your will by supporting a particular project or area of St Mungo’s work; such as housing, education and training, or women’s only services. It’s helpful to be flexible in these wishes, as we must constantly change and adapt to ensure we’re providing the most effective service for people experiencing homelessness. If you’d like to support a specific project or service, please contact us.
St Mungo’s cannot act as an executor, as unfortunately, we do not have the capacity to do so.
We would love to hear from you and answer any questions you may have. Please get in touch by emailing legacies@mungos.org
