Remember KAB in your Will
Leaving a legacy in your Will to Kent Association for the Blind is a gift to the future.
During the next 30 years, research by RNIB suggests that an ageing population could lead to the number of people experiencing significant sight loss in the UK more than doubling to 4 million.
KAB has been working for sight impaired people for the last 90 years. In the years to come, we will still be here, giving people the support, the training and the tools they need to be independent and to lead fulfilled lives.
Whether you give £200 of £20,000, your legacy is the gift of independence to sight impaired children and adults in the years to come.
If you would like to discuss leaving a legacy to KAB in your Will, please contact Karen Osborn, KAB's Chief Executive on 01622 691357.

How legacies help KAB
Legacies from KAB supporters provide crucial funding for a range of key services that make a real and tangible difference to sight impaired people in Kent, Medway, Bromley and Bexley.
Here are some of the ways legacies have made a difference to our work.
Keeping KAB's Assistive Technology service running 
Our Assistive Technology service provides tuition and support for sight impaired people to enable them to use specialised software to access computers. The service enables people, for the first time, to be a part of the global online community: sending emails, browsing the internet and using computers to write and read their own correspondence.
We've been able to keep this service running, thanks to people leaving legacies in their Wills to KAB.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q. Why are legacies so important to KAB?
A. Voluntary income - that is money donated to us by people, Trusts and businesses - is crucially important to our work. Last year, money from legacies accounted for over half of all the voluntary income we received.The people who need our services have individual needs. For example, it can take one person just two Mobility lessons to be safe outside, but another may need many more before they can ble independently mobile. Legacy income means that, instead of having to ration our services so that everyone receives the same, we have the flexibility to respond appropriately according to the requirements of each individual.
