Leave a gift in your will
Leaving a legacy in your will is one of the best ways of ensuring that we can continue our valuable work.
"My main reason for leaving a legacy in my will to Oracle is because I had upper GI oesophageal cancer and went through chemotherapy, laryngectomy surgery and radiotherapy.
I feel very strongly that further research is essential to improve the treatment and quality of life for patients after it. The long term side effects can be challenging to cope with. In order for this to happen, funds for research are needed. Head and neck cancer charities are overlooked. Gifts in wills are an excellent and straightforward way of funding research. I have encouraged family and friends to consider donating in this way."

Did you know that in the UK, legacies form a huge part of charitable donations?
In 2023, legacy income in the UK alone is expected to generate over £4bn, however the lion share will be given to large charities and while Head and Neck cancer is the fourth most common cause of cancer in men and Oracle Head & Neck Cancer UK is the leading Head and Neck cancer, we are not one of the largest charities. A gift in your Will has the power to make a massive difference.
