Dear Future: I Leave This Place For You - Corfe Castle

Learn more about how a gift in your will could help us carry out crucial conservation work at Corfe Castle.

  • Booking essential
  • Free event

Without gifts in wills, we simply wouldn’t be able to look after the extraordinary places in our care. This special event will take you behind the scenes to see first-hand how your support is helping us carry out crucial conservation work every day, and how a gift in your own will could help to safeguard the future of our special places.

Join members of our expert team as they take you on a short "behind the scenes" tour of Corfe Castle including insight into future projects. Over light refreshments, you’ll have the opportunity to chat further to members of the team and learn more about why gifts in wills are so important to our work.
