Stronger, together, forever
Being severely affected by mental illness can make the world feel smaller, shrinking the circle of those around us. But here’s the thing—we all need each other, and we always will.
By leaving a gift in your Will, you can help ensure no one faces mental illness alone—because nothing can stop us from caring, today, tomorrow, and always.
You’ll also be part of a strong, purposeful tribe opening up the world for those severely affected by mental illness. Ready to learn more? Download our simple Guide to Gifts in Wills and discover how you can be part of something truly life changing.
Sometimes, just knowing we’re in this together is all it takes.

Eleanor's story
Eleanor’s family joined us in the early 1970s, so that they could receive support caring for her sister Shirley. Since then, she has been instrumental in strengthening our community of care for everyone affected by mental illness, and a gift in her Will means that can endure for years to come.

Raymond Briggs' gift
Raymond Briggs had a personal connection to our cause. His journey with us began in the early ‘70s, when we were starting out as the National Schizophrenia Fellowship, through his wife, Jean, who lived with mental illness.

Time to get Will ready...
Do I need to use a solicitor or professional Will-writing service?
We highly recommend it! That way, you can be sure your wishes are followed to the letter, and everything is handled smoothly and legally.
I’m an executor of an estate—how do I send a payment?
Most importantly, thank you! If you give our Legacy team a heads-up, they can keep an eye out for the payment and share our bank details if needed. You can drop them a line at legacyinfo@rethink.org. Prefer sending a cheque? Pop it in the post to Nicole Young at Rethink Mental Illness, 28 Albert Embankment, London, SE1 7GR.
Do I need to tell you if I’m remembering you in my Will?
You don’t have to share your plans, but if you do, it’ll help us feel more confident about planning ahead. Plus, we’ll get to shower you with gratitude for your generosity!

What our community is saying!
"My gift in my Will is my way to pay that forward. I want other people to be treated the same way. And it’s not just at a local or individual level that I want Rethink to be able to change lives."
"My parents and I helped set up the first UK family support groups – and these were a huge help for carers, as the members shared their experiences with others who simply 'just got it' ."
