Leaving a Legacy

Making a will is a deeply personal decision and we understand that your first consideration will be the needs of your family and friends but we hope that it is possible for you to include a gift to the school.

This can be in the form of money, or assets such as shares, property or other valuables. Making a bequest today is a simple and straightforward process and may have tax benefits for your estate by reducing exposure to inheritance tax. A solicitor will advise you about the different types of legacies and how to make a will.

If you decide to support the school it would be very helpful to have an indication of your intentions. A confidential pledge form can be found below and this information will help our long-term planning.

Aman Bailwal (Class of 2010) is going to run 4 marathons in 4 days up and down Scottish Mountains to raise money for Tiny Tickers.

Earlier this year, Madi (Class of 2011) and I welcomed our baby daughter, Alina, to the world. Alina was born with a major heart defect that, undetected, can prove fatal. For the first week, Alina presented as perfectly healthy, and we would normally have been at home with no awareness of the critical danger she was in.

But thanks to Tiny Tickers, a charity improving the detection, care and treatment of babies with serious heart conditions, this was detected at the 20-week scan. The medical team had time to prepare for her birth and treatment.

Alina’s health deteriorated for the first 2 months until her pre-scheduled open heart surgery. Since then, her recovery has been amazing. She is doing great now!
