Free Wills Month: Meet our Gifts in Wills Team at Sissinghurst Castle Garden

This Free Wills Month we're hosting a pop-up event at Sissinghurst. Stop by between 10:00am and 4:00pm to meet the National Trust’s gifts in wills team, register for our free will-writing service, and learn how you can protect the places you love.

  • Booking not needed
  • Free event (admission applies)

As Free Wills Month approaches this October, it’s the perfect time to reflect on how we can support cherished causes, after ensuring our loved ones are cared for, and think about the future. Gifts in wills play a crucial role in funding projects at Sissinghurst Castle Garden such as the remedial conservation works to the historical book collection and development of a photo archive for visitors to enjoy. As well as supporting integral garden renewal works, gifts in wills entirely fund the Sissinghurst Scholarship Programme to aid development of horticulturists for the future. Free Wills Month encourages us to consider leaving a gift in our wills to the National Trust, helping local treasures in Kent and beyond continue to thrive.

Join the team at Sissinghurst Castle Garden and learn how your support enables essential conservation work that preserves our landscape and heritage. Without your generosity, we wouldn’t be able to protect the places we all love. Discover how a gift in your will, no matter the size, can create a lasting legacy.

Booking is not required – simply drop by anytime between 10:00am and 4:00pm on Tuesday 8th October.
