What will your legacy be?
Discussing your will is not easy, but it is a precious conversation.
After all, a will contains your final legal instructions, revealed only after you are gone and when much sadness remains.
Crafting a will is something you dedicate much thought to – what legacy will you leave? What will your final impact be?
For many, it involves remembering children and other family members. For many it also means leaving a bequest, or monetary gift to honour and support a special cause.
If saying thanks by helping improve the quality of life of other Brightwater clients means a lot to you, then we understand why.
We are very grateful for your thoughtfulness should you decide to leave a gift in your will to us.
A gift of independence
Whether large or small, every gift that Brightwater receives is greatly appreciated and valued. Your generosity will support initiatives that will help future generations for years to come.
Your valuable contribution will be directed toward our dedicated research centre for us to continue exploring and finding innovative and tangible ways how to improve people’s wellbeing.
Our research priorities include brain health, ageing well, brain injury rehabilitation, independence, dementia care, quality of life, Huntington’s Disease and palliative care.
Your support will help us continue our mission of pursuing the dignity and independence for some of the most vulnerable in our community.
