However, if you wish to support a particular initiative, or perhaps something that is of special importance to you – then you can be sure that, as long as your request would not compromise the Trust’s charitable status, we will honour your generosity.A bequest by will to the Scottish Countryside Alliance Educational Trust (SCAET) would be of huge benefit to our charity, and if you were able to advise us of your intentions then this would allow us to plan for the future.

If you would like to leave a legacy to SCAET, we would advise you to seek professional guidance from your legal advisor regarding the nature and terms of your bequest. Thank you for supporting the Scottish Countryside Alliance Educational Trust  Kids' Zone at Scotland's Countryside Festival 2006 |
