Our no obligation free Will writing service

We are very pleased to provide The Cinnamon Trust Free Will Writing Scheme to our supporters.

We are able to offer this service with the help of two providers: The National Free Will Network and Elm Legal Services. The Cinnamon Trust pay a special rate to cover the writing fee of a simple, basic single, or mirrored Will.

There is no obligation to include a legacy to The Trust but of course we hope that our supporters will do so to aid us in recouping these fees. Between our two providers, our Free Will Service is available to residents of England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.

Dr. Jenny McCann remembering her mother, Mrs. Gillian Saunders

We have always been an animal-mad family and cannot imagine life without pets. Your fabulous work will have been something that she would have been very proud to support.

We are extremely pleased that Mum left a legacy in her will – she left money to three other charities too, but I am pretty sure that The Cinnamon Trust will have been her favourite. We are delighted that The Cinnamon Trust will benefit from my mother’s estate and we know that the money could not be put to better use.

The importance of your gifts

Your support helps us maintain this vital connection between people and their pets, ensuring that love and companionship continue even in the face of adversity.

A gift from you will allow us to continue to hold hands with pet owners who need support in their community as well as the safety blanket that every bereaved pet deserves, as we have been for the last 40 years.

Faqs

The Cinnamon Trust

  • Does The Cinnamon Trust rehome pets?

    The Cinnamon Trust is not a re-homing charity. The only time we offer a new home to a pet is if an owner has made arrangements with us prior to their passing or move into permanent nursing care for their pet(s) to come into our care, should they become unable to look after them (Pet Profiling). We have no rehoming centre, kennels, cattery, or boarding facility and instead move pets into a temporary or Forever Foster homes.

  • Does The Cinnamon Trust offer will writing?

    Yes, The Cinnamon Trust is able to offer a free will writing service. Find out more at [Legacy Page].

  • Does The Cinnamon Trust offer any financial support with vet bills?

    The only circumstance that we support with vet bills is for our Forever Foster pets, for which we cover all vet bills for life as part of the promise made to their previous owner. Unfortunately, we do not offer financial support as part of our services to the general public.

  • Where is The Cinnamon Trust based?

    The Cinnamon Trust head office is located in Hayle, Cornwall. Poldarves Farm Sanctuary is located in Penzance, Cornwall. Hillside Farm Sanctuary is located in Lewdown, Devon.
