A Lasting Gift of Music

For centuries, the voices of Choristers have filled Wells Cathedral with beauty, devotion, and inspiration. Through their music, generations have found comfort, joy, and a sense of the sacred. A legacy gift, no matter the size, becomes part of something enduring: a living tradition of excellence that continues to enrich lives, both within the Cathedral and far beyond.  

Your Legacy, Their Future

By remembering the Wells Cathedral Chorister Trust in your will, you can help nurture the musical and personal development of young Choristers for generations to come. Your gift will provide vital support for their education, training, and wellbeing—enabling them to flourish both as musicians and as individuals. 

Why Your Support Matters

Becoming a Chorister is a life-changing experience. It demands dedication, discipline, and passion—but it also offers exceptional opportunities. Choristers receive outstanding musical training, academic support, and the chance to be part of something truly special. 

Your legacy can help to: 

  • Provide scholarships and financial assistance  

  • Maintain the highest standards of musical training  

  • Support the wellbeing and development of each chorister  

  • Sustain the Cathedral’s choral tradition for future generations  

A Gift That Endures

Legacies are a powerful way to make a difference without affecting your financial security during your lifetime. After providing for your loved ones, even a small percentage of your estate can have a profound and lasting impact. 

Many supporters choose to leave: 

  • A share of their estate (a residuary gift)  

  • A fixed sum of money  

  • A specific asset  

Every gift is deeply valued.
