FreePROBATE pledges
Help us unlock the UK’s probate records – become a pledger today
We’re launching FreeProbate (FreePRO) a revolutionary, free-to-access database of UK probate records. To do it, we’re taking part in the Big Give Christmas Challenge, aiming to raise £40,000. To unlock £20,000 in match funding, we first need to secure £10,000 in pledges by 29th August.
What is a pledge?
A pledge is a promise to donate £100 or more to our campaign in December — but it won’t be collected until after the campaign. Pledgers help us access vital match funding, doubling the donations we receive from the public during campaign week.
Don't worry if you'd like to support FreePRO with a smaller amount: we will gratefully receive donations of any size during the Christmas Challenge campaign later this year.
Why pledge?
By becoming a pledger, you’ll be helping to:
- Launch the only searchable probate record system of its kind
- Support free access to vital historical data
- Empower people to uncover their family stories
