Give in your will
Leaving a gift in your will to Myeloma UK takes us one step closer to a cure.
Together, we’re making amazing progress in the research and treatment of myeloma –but we can’t stop at treatable.
Join the journey to cure myeloma
Every day, 17 people in the UK are told they have myeloma. Thousands of people are already living with myeloma. Life with myeloma can be relentless – an exhausting cycle of treatments, remissions, and relapses. But it doesn’t have to stay this way.
By leaving a gift in your will, you could help:
- Fund vital research that brings us closer to a cure
- Develop and accelerate access to new treatments
- Ensure everyone affected by myeloma has the information, advice and support they need.
Close to one quarter of our charitable work is funded by gifts in wills. But with more work still to do, we need more people to take this inspiring step and be part of the journey to a cure.
Contact Faith from the gifts in wills team
Every gift, of any size, plays an important part in changing lives. Once you’ve provided for your loved ones, any gift you leave will make a lasting difference for people affected by myeloma.
If you have any questions or would like a confidential, no obligation chat about leaving a gift in your will, I’d love to hear from you. Please email giftsinwills@myeloma.org.uk or call 0131 230 0429.

A gift in your will can help do more
Graham is so grateful that Myeloma UK has been there to support him. Now he wants to help Myeloma UK be there for even more people affected by myeloma. That’s why Graham and his wife, Karen, have left gifts in their wills.
“It was obvious to me that if I was going to rewrite my will, why would I not leave a gift to the charity that is closest to me – Myeloma UK.”
Barbara’s gift for future treatments
After years of living with precursor conditions, Barbara has been on a number of different treatments since her myeloma diagnosis. She knows how fortunate she has been to receive these treatments and through her gift in will, she wants to make sure that research continues.
“I am lucky to have benefitted from new treatments. With my gift in will to Myeloma UK I wish to help fund research so that others can benefit too.”
Why Andy and Liz used the Myeloma UK free will writing service
Andy and Liz had been meaning to write their wills for a little while. So, when they saw the free will writing service provided by Myeloma UK on the website, it gave them the motivation to actually go ahead and do it.
“It’s a very easy process leaving a gift in your will to Myeloma UK. Your gift will really help make a difference and go towards research for this condition.”
Andy and Liz want to make an impact and that’s why they’ve left a gift in their wills to Myeloma UK.
We are pleased to say that we are a proud member of Remember A Charity who have further resources on writing or updating your Will.
