REMEMBER A CHARITY WEEK 2025
8 – 14 September 2025
This September, we’re joining over 200 of the UK’s favourite charities to shine a light on the extraordinary power of gifts in Wills.
After you’ve looked after your loved ones, could you help secure a brighter future for Deaf communities across the UK?
Leaving a gift to the British Deaf Association (BDA) in your Will costs nothing today, but it could change lives for generations. Your legacy will help us:
- Preserve, protect and promote British Sign Language (BSL) and Irish Sign Language (ISL)
- Champion the rights and voices of Deaf people
- Ensure Deaf culture and languages are passed on to future generations
This year’s Remember A Charity Week celebrates how a small decision can create a lasting impact. Your gift- no matter the size - becomes part of a movement that keeps languages, culture, and communities thriving.
Will you remember us in your Will and help safeguard our work for tomorrow’s Deaf communities?
Find out how you can leave a legacy of communication, connection, and equality by visiting our page: Leaving A Gift In Your Will.
Together, we can keep our languages alive.
Together, we can make history.
Community Voices:
Accessible Will Writing in BSL
For the first time, Deaf people in the UK can discuss their Wills directly in British Sign Language. This breakthrough came through our partnership with Culver Law, who have worked with us to make their Will writing service fully accessible in BSL.
In the videos below, members of our community share their own experiences of using this service. Each person talks about how straightforward and supportive the process was, and how important it felt to be able to make such significant life decisions in their own language.
Their stories highlight why accessibility matters and how it can make a lasting difference.
What is Remember a Charity?
Remember A Charity works closely with charities to raise awareness about leaving a gift in a will.
Most people simply aren't aware that they can leave a gift in their will - so by raising awareness of gifts in wills ensures that the essential work of charities can live on for future generations.
