How to Help - Make a lasting contribution

Legacies and bequests
Everyone can leave the world a better place - don't forget what's closest to your heart - don't let our good work stop when you die.

Leaving a gift in your will to Canterbury Oast Trust will enable us to continue to offer high quality long term care to adults with learning disabilities. It would mean so much to those who sometimes are unable to care for themselves.

A gift in your will to a registered charity is always free from inheritance tax and might considerably reduce any tax you have to pay.

The Remember a Charity website is an extremely helpful resource providing guidance for people wanting to remember their favourite charity in their will.

Donations in Memory
Why not think about dedicating a tree in our Rainbow Wood?

We have created a 10,000 tree woodland in the heart of the Kent countryside with the aim of securing the futire of people with a learning disability and preserving our own native trees. The woodland is maintained by volunteers who aim to strike a balance between orderliness and the needs of conservation.

For each £50 donated, individually or collectively, a tree in Rainbow Wood will be dedicated as you choose - in memory of a loved one, to a child or grandchild, for a birthday, a marriage, a celebration, an achievement or even a beloved pet. Each tree will bear a plaque with your own choice of wording.

As the Rainbow Wood of native British trees develops, you will be able to visit at any time to see how the trees are growing. Your donation will help to secure the future of so many.
