Leave A Lasting Legacy

Since Mill Hill first opened its doors over 200 years ago, we have been the fortunate and very grateful beneficiary of legacy gifts left by Old Millhillians, staff and friends of the School. Our School is the living legacy of their generosity. We hold our legacy donors in extremely high regard and are immensely grateful to all those who choose to remember us in this way.

The 1807 Society

We are particularly grateful when alumni and friends choose to inform us of their intentions to leave a gift in their will. The 1807 Society brings together all those who have included Mill Hill School in their will and care deeply about its future. Named after the year the School was founded, the Society is our way of thanking our members.

“There isn’t a day that passes when I don’t think to myself how fortunate I was to be at Mill Hill, to receive a full bursary under the Middlesex Scholarship Scheme. This is why I have committed to leave something in my will to bursaries at Mill Hill School.”
Stewart Wernham, Collinson, 1974-1979
