What’s your LEGACY?

From inspiring your grandchildren to be passionate about gardening to leaving a lasting gift to a good cause such as Unicef, it’ s rewarding top ass on a legacy

Whether you enjoy strolling around idyllic parks or prefer to get hands-on with planting and pruning, gardens can offer a much-needed distraction from the buzz of modern life. So, it’s no wonder you’d like to pass this appreciation on to your grandchildren.

From planting daffodil bulbs together to visiting beautiful parks, your loved ones will always have lots of fond memories of you and your passion for gardening, but there are also other meaningful things you can do to create a lasting legacy. You’d do anything for your grandchildren, so how great would it be to create a legacy that could impact hundreds of children around the world, as well as your own family?

For over 70 years, Unicef has been there for children, keeping them safe when war or disaster strikes. Unicef educates and protects more children around the world than any other organisation. What’s more, it also supplies vaccines for almost half the world’s children, but it needs your help.

By leaving a gift to Unicef in your will, you can ensure it continues its life-saving work. You can help make the world a safer place for children in the future, giving them a chance to learn and grow so they too can follow their passions.
