At Allowah, we couldn’t do what we do without the support of our friends in the community. As a not-for-profit organisation, we rely on the generosity of supporters to help us keep going.
Bequests help us plan more effectively for the future and secure our work now. For more than 70 years, Allowah has served the community by supporting families for whom there is simply no other suitable alternative for care. With your help, we can continue to be there for these young people and their carers for many more years to come.
Making a will is an important thing to do – it gives you the opportunity to safeguard what is important to you and how you want your assets to be managed. It allows you the certainty of the lasting impact for others that you’ve put in place. And by letting us know that you’ve included us in your will, it gives us the opportunity to properly thank and acknowledge you.

If you are creating your will for the first time, we recommend consulting a solicitor who specialises in wills and estates. However, you may choose to draft your own will using an online provider or by purchasing a will kit from a news agency or post office.
If you already have a will, the most cost-effective way to include a bequest to Allowah is by adding a short legal amendment called a codicil. Check with your solicitor to see if a codicil is appropriate for the updates you wish to make.
To leave a gift in your will, your executor will need the following details:

Solicitor fees for drafting a will vary, so don’t hesitate to compare options to find the best fit for your needs.
Not at all. Anyone can leave a gift in their will, and every contribution—big or small—makes a meaningful difference. Your generosity helps ensure Allowah can continue providing specialised care, therapy, and support for children and young people with disabilities.
