'Why not come aboard tomorrow, I'm sure that's what the Captain would have wished'.

The Green Ship, Quentin Blake, 1998

"I am pleased to be able to support such a valuable and worthwhile local initiative as the Quentin Blake Illustration Centre. I have been interested and involved in the project since its inception and will be excited to see it completed. The centre will provide an inspirational resource for illustrators but will continue to need financial support. I have been happy to make provision for a legacy in my Will and urge others to consider similar action." Paul Thornton

If you share our passion for illustration, and its vital role as the art in our everyday lives, a gift in your Will to the Quentin Blake Centre could make an impact long into the future.

A gift to the Centre (registered charity number 1095210) Futures Fund will support:

• Championing illustration through exhibitions, research and events
• Sharing the tools of illustration through learning and community programmes and online resources
• Conserving the New River Head heritage site, the national home for illustration
  

We are extremely grateful for each and every legacy gift we receive. Thank you for considering supporting us in this special way.
