Gifts in wills can make a lasting difference

Around the world, millions of children live difficult lives that no child should have to endure. Poverty, conflict and the global cost of living have pushed more families to breaking point. As a result, many children end up on the streets. But what they find there is often far worse than what they’ve left behind.

Thanks to our amazing supporters, we’ve been able to reach thousands of these children before an abuser can, helping turn their lives around.

Your legacy can help us reach far more.

 

"I've supported Railway Children for many years and want that to continue after my death. Leaving a legacy was simple to arrange, and it means I can keep impacting children's lives long after I have gone."

Stuart, Sandbach
