Leaving a gift to help secure the future of Lighthouse

Back

Lighthouse Poole, one of the UK’s largest regional arts centres, has launched a heartfelt campaign explaining how its supporters can make amazing things happen in the future when they decide to leave a gift in their Will.

That legacy will enable Lighthouse to ensure future generations continue to benefit from the transformative power of arts and culture in Poole and Dorset.

Each year Lighthouse:

  • delivers more than 13,000 life-enhancing creative experiences for young people, helping them develop their confidence and skills;
  • provides high-quality cultural experiences for its 29 Partner Schools across Dorset, enriching learning and nurturing creativity;
  • supports more than 120 artists to create and present new work, strengthening the cultural life of Poole and the wider region;
  • presents more than 1,600 performances, screenings, live events and exhibitions;
  • ensures everyone can enjoy and engage with the arts through accessible performances.

“Gifts made by our supporters in their Will can help ensure that Lighthouse continues to thrive for generations to come,” says Jonathan Smith, Lighthouse Friends and Individual Giving Executive.

“These Leave A Legacy gifts will enable us to care for our much-loved venue, to continue bringing world-class arts and culture to Poole and Dorset and ensure that more people can have the life-changing power of the arts in their life. People’s support helps ensure that Lighthouse continues to be a welcoming place into the future, where everyone can experience inspiring performances, discover new creative experiences and make lasting memories.”

Lighthouse has partnered with leading local law firm HK Law to help and advise its supporters who are considering how to create a legacy for the future by leaving a gift in their Will.

“We are delighted to be partnering with Lighthouse to support the important work they do across our local community,” says Laura Staples, Partner and Head of Private Client at HK Law. “Through this collaboration, we are proud to provide expert guidance on Wills and estate planning, helping supporters leave a lasting legacy for future generations.”
