Borders Forest Trust

Legacy Giving

Legacies are helping to transform the face of southern Scotland by enabling Borders Forest Trust to protect and create native woodlands.

BFT relies on voluntary support and legacies are vital to secure the long-term future of our work.

Legacies of all sizes help us to secure a better future for woodlands, wildlife and people in the south of Scotland.

By leaving a gift to Borders Forest Trust in your will, you can help to create a lasting legacy of trees that will be planted, woodlands conserved and restored and valuable natural habitats protected for generations to come.

To make a gift all you need to do is name Borders Forest Trust as a beneficiary in your will. You will need to include our full name and registered office address:

We strongly recommend that you consult a solicitor or other qualified professional to make sure that your will reflects your wishes accurately.

Legacies are an important source of income to Borders Forest Trust. Since BFT was formed in 1996, legacies have helped us to purchase land for tree planting, plant new native woodlands and protect important natural habitats. You may restrict your legacy in terms of the way that your gift can be used by the Trust, or if you wish, an unrestricted gift will be used by the Trust in the areas where it is most needed.

BFT has produced a Legacy booklet which contains further information about leaving a gift to the trust in your will. Download the leaflet, or call the office on 01875 830750 or email enquiries@bordersforesttrust.org
