Help transform lives through sailing for generations to come

What it means to us

Leaving a gift in your Will to the Andrew Simpson Foundation is one of the most powerful ways you can help young people discover their confidence, purpose, and sense of belonging through sailing, watersports and outdoor activity.

With your support, we can ensure that future generations, especially those from underrepresented backgrounds, continue to benefit from the transformative impact of green and blue spaces.

Why leave a gift?

Every legacy gift, large or small, helps us to provide free and subsidised sailing sessions for young people in need, fund qualifications and training that lead to employment and brighter future, maintain inclusive community clubs that build connection and wellbeing, extend our outreach to schools, youth groups, and underrepresented communities and continue Andrew “Bart” Simpson’s vision for a more equal and inspiring future on the water.

By remembering the Foundation in your Will, you become part of a story that continues your legacy by transforming lives through sailing.

How to leave a gift in your will

Leaving a gift is straightforward and can be added to a new or existing will. Every gift makes a difference. You don’t need to be wealthy just willing to help others succeed. You can choose to leave:

A percentage of your estate

Also known as a residuary gift

A fixed amount of money

Also known as a pecuniary gift

A specific item

Such as property, shares or equipment
