Leave a Gift in Your Will
A gift in your Will could help women and families recovering from abuse for generations to come.
At Lotus Families, we support women and families across East Sussex and Brighton & Hove who are rebuilding their lives after domestic abuse and child-to-parent abuse. Through our specialist Recovery and CAPVA programmes, we help families move beyond crisis, rebuild confidence and strengthen safety, wellbeing and relationships.
By leaving a gift to Lotus Families in your Will, you can help ensure future families are not left facing recovery alone.
Why legacy gifts matter
As a small charity, gifts left in Wills can make a genuinely transformational difference to our future sustainability.
Demand for our services continues to rise significantly, yet funding for specialist recovery support remains uncertain and highly competitive. In 2025-26, we had to make the difficult decision to temporarily pause new referrals to our Recovery programme while we safely managed demand and redesigned our pathway.
Legacy gifts help us plan for the future with greater confidence and continue providing safe, specialist support for women and families recovering from abuse.
Your gift could help us to:
- provide specialist Recovery groups for women recovering from domestic abuse
- support parents experiencing child-to-parent abuse within the home
- offer early intervention, safety planning and emotional support
- reduce isolation and improve wellbeing
- strengthen peer support and long-term recovery opportunities
- help interrupt intergenerational cycles of harm
Every gift, no matter the size, helps create lasting change.
A gift that reflects your values
After providing for loved ones, many people choose to leave a charitable gift that reflects the causes and communities they care about most deeply.
A gift in your Will to Lotus Families is an investment in safer futures for women, children and families across our local community.
How to leave a gift in your Will
Leaving a gift in your Will is usually straightforward and can be arranged through a solicitor or Will-writing service.
You can choose to leave:
- a share of your estate
- a fixed sum of money
- a specific item or asset
If you are considering leaving a gift to Lotus Families, we would be very grateful and happy to speak with you confidentially and without obligation.
