Residuary Gift
A residuary gift, or ‘share of your estate’, is the percentage of your estate that you choose to leave to a beneficiary. It will not devalue over time.
Leave a gift in your will
At St Barnabas Hospice, we would not be able to provide our vital care without individuals who leave a gift in their Will. Each gift, no matter the size, is one of the most powerful ways to protect local hospice care so it’s here for everyone who needs it, now and in the future.
Leaving a gift to St Barnabas
We believe high-quality, dignified end-of-life care is a human right, not a luxury – and it is our mission to provide this level of care to our community, far into the future.
Over the last four decades, the range of services we provide has grown, but our vision and mission have never changed. We are a community-owned hospice, with services in every corner of Lincolnshire to ensure that anyone with a terminal illness or life-limiting condition – along with their family members and carers – can access the support they need.
Every day, we see the incredible impact that legacy donors make in supporting our vital services across Lincolnshire. Their generosity helps us expand our care, support our staff, and set up new initiatives. In fact, they make up our biggest income stream.

How to write your Will with St Barnabas
Wills are an important way of making sure your wishes are known, and that the things you have worked hard for during your life will go to the people and causes that you hold dear.
Yet a staggering 52% of people in the UK haven’t made a Will. If you die without a Will, you may be leaving your loved one with considerable legal fees and paperwork. You will not be able to determine whether the things you have worked for will go to your loved ones or close causes.
Have you thought about writing your Will, but don’t know where to start? We are help to help you and make it as simple as possible. Across Lincolnshire we host regular, free events which give you the opportunity to meet with a legal professional and gain guidance on making your Will. We also offer a free online service.
