Legacies

Leaving WNO a gift in your will cost you nothing now, but is a wonderful way to ensure the company’s future, helping it to fulfil it potential and continue to perform world-class opera for future generations.

If you have already made a will...

but would like to leave a gift to WNO, you can do so by making a simple addition to your existing Will. This is called a codicil. This document is a supplement to your will enabling you to include new instructions and delete old ones without having to go through the task of rewriting the whole Will. Click here to download a codicil form.

If you have not already made a will...

our advice would be that you should visit a solicitor to seek advice about how to make a will. Solicitors will charge a fee, but you will receive sound professional advice and can be sure that your wishes are accurately reflected.

If you have already remembered WNO in your will...

Please tell us - we would like to show our gratitude during your lifetime! We have created the Idloes Owen Society to help us say thank you to those who inform us of their promised gift to Welsh National Opera. To read more about Idloes Owen, click here.

Gift of Life Insurance

If you believe that your family no longer need the security of your life insurance, then you may consider it to be an effective way of donating to Welsh National Opera.

How to donate your life insurance

Simply contact your insurance company and nominate Welsh National Opera Limited (Charity Number 221538) as the beneficiary of your life insurance on the Expression of Wish Form. There is no need to change your will. It is an excellent way of helping to ensure that WNO continues to perform and tour world-class opera for future generations.

If you have already nominated WNO to receive your life insurance, please tell us - we would like to show our gratitude during your lifetime! Please contact Claire Heaney, Development Manager, Individual Giving on 029 2063 5046 email claire.heaney@wno.org.uk
