Gifts in your will

Learn more about leaving a gift to the College in your will

A story for good

Medicine is important to you because of its ability to change and improve lives. A gift in your will to the Royal College of Physicians of Edinburgh is one of the most meaningful ways to extend that commitment beyond your lifetime.

It costs nothing today, requires no minimum amount, and can be arranged simply when you next update your will. With a few minutes of your time, you can become part of that story.

Why it matters

The College has stood at the heart of medical education, standards, and advocacy since 1681.

Legacy gifts fund what membership fees alone cannot: scholarships, research and the next generation of physicians. 

They keep the College a truly independent voice for doctors and patients alike, for generations to come.

It's simpler than you think

The most common legacy gift is a provision in your will. Your solicitor can add it in minutes. You choose the amount and how your gift is allocated (gifts without restrictions allow us to use the funds wherever the need is greatest),and can change your mind at any time. 

If healthcare, medical standards and education matter to you, a gift in your will is one more way to recognise that.
