The vision of our Founder, William Mitchell LLD, was itself the legacy of a remarkable man. Inspired, he formed ‘East Park’ in 1874, an organisation that would provide children and young people with vital residential nursing care, education, nourishment and fresh country air away from the smoky city, insanitary conditions and unfortunate family circumstances in which they lived. Whilst our work may have changed dramatically over the last 140 years, the need for your support is as great today as it was then.

Our supporters have left us legacies since East Park first began and these gifts fund some of our most vital work.  We understand that there is so much to consider when making up your will and we simply ask that once your friends and family are taken care of, you consider leaving a percentage of whatever is left over to support our work.

Writing a will can seem like a complex process and we always advise you that you speak with a Solicitor about it.  East Park are delighted to be partnered with Thomas Bradley Legal Services. Thomas Bradley Legal Services is one of the leading estate planning legal firms in Scotland. If you are over 50, you can benefit from their Free Will Service. All they ask is that you consider leaving a gift in your will to future children at East Park.
