For generations, the arts have brought people together, sparked creativity, and made Somerset a richer, more vibrant place to live. From performances that move us to community workshops that inspire the next generation, your support has made it all possible.
Now, you can help ensure that legacy continues — by leaving a gift in your will to our organisation.
Free Will-Writing for Legacy Supporters
We know that writing a will can feel daunting — which is why we’ve partnered with the UK’s leading will-writing provider, The Goodwill Partnership, to make the process simple, convenient, and completely free of charge.
This offer is available for supporters who include a gift to us in their will. It’s our way of saying thank you for helping us bring the arts to future generations in Somerset.
Wills are taken by a trained counsellor during a home visit, and completed by solicitors — so you can have peace of mind that everything is done properly and professionally.

Why Leave a Legacy Gift?
As a small, underfunded charity, we are facing increasing challenges due to cuts in public funding. Yet the need for what we do – bringing creativity, connection and joy to rural and often isolated communities – has never been greater.
By remembering Take Art in your Will, you can help us continue this vital work. Even the smallest gift can make a lasting difference, supporting artists, young people and communities across Somerset.
Your legacy gifts help us:
- Bring performances, exhibitions and workshops to local communities
- Support emerging artists and educators
- Keep the arts alive and accessible to all
- Nurture wellbeing, spark imagination and bring people together in Somerset
Every gift, no matter the size, becomes part of a larger legacy — one that will keep the arts and communities alive in our county for generations to come.
