Leaving a Legacy

Legacies are a moving and powerful way of supporting the School. There are lots of different ways of leaving a bequest that are explained in our GAF Legacy Advice Booklet and Form. By informing us of your intention to leave us a gift in your Will, you become eligible to join our legacy society, the Kurt Hahn Foundation. As a member of the KHF you will receive invites to exclusive member-only events and regular updates and newsletters.

For more advice on leaving a legacy, please contact Andrew Lyall, KHF Member and Head of Development & ALumni on + 44 (0)1343 837986 or email Andrew directly.

Please note that it is always advisable to seek professional advice from your legal advisor, and we urge you to do so, to ensure that your wishes are complied with.
