£1.4m charity windfall from war refugee's secret fortune
Scottish Daily Express
|March 13, 2025
A SECRET millionaire who donated her fortune to local causes has been revealed to be a Jewish secretary who fled Nazi Germany as a child.
Hilda Levi, who owned a modest 1970s semi-detached home in Whitstable, Kent, gifted £1.4 million after she died in 2022, aged 98.
Her recently published will revealed that she gave £500,000 each to the Friends of Kent and Canterbury Hospital and Age UK, as well as £200,000 each to the Friends of Whitstable Healthcare and Moorfields Eye Hospital in London.
The charities were mystified - having had no knowledge of Hilda.
Georgina Baker, of Friends of Whitstable Healthcare, added: "We have no idea who Miss Levi was but her generosity will bring huge benefits to patients."
