By including OAE in your will, you'll help us to inspire, enthuse, and challenge future generations.
Those who identify themselves to us as legacy pledgers will be invited to a special event during the year, gaining an insight into the Orchestra and its artistic process. Every gift, no matter the size, makes a difference. Here are two ways your generosity can have a lasting impact. Legacy pledges give a sense of certainty in the future of the OAE to enable us to plan with ambition and confidence:Unrestricted Gift: This is the most helpful bequest, and allows us to use your donation where it’s needed most, ensuring maximum impact.Designated Gift: Do you have a specific area of our work that resonates with you? Perhaps it’s a chair in the orchestra, one of our inspiring and unique projects, or a vital education programme. A designated gift ensures your support goes directly to that area.Did you know that leaving a gift to a charity can also help your loved ones: if you leave 10% or more of your estate to a charity, you’ll be taxed at a lower rate (36% rather than 40%) on any part of your estate that qualifies for inheritance tax.
