Though we respect this is a sensitive subject, you may be interested to know you can show your support for Mayfair by making a bequest.
Leaving a gift in your will (sometimes called a legacy) to a charity you’ve previously supported, can continue to help a cause that’s close to your heart.
You’re completely in control of how much you choose to give and a gift to Mayfair in your will could make all the difference. It certainly did this last year – a difficult time for all charities, ourselves included.
In past years, legacies and memorial gifts have supported the purchase of a Ring and Ride bus, and our accessible Parker bath, and have helped us continue serving the community during the pandemic.
