October Free Wills Month is now closed, but you can still have your will written or updated for free with us through our Free Will Offer. This is year-round and available across the country.
There’s no obligation to make a gift to Mind in your will, but by choosing to support our work in this way you can help create a better future for everyone experiencing a mental health problem.
There is no obligation to make a gift to Mind in your will when taking part in Free Wills Month or our Free Will offer, but a gift – however big or small – will help us make a difference to the lives of those of us living with a mental health problem.
We believe no-one should have to face a mental health problem alone. If you share our vision of a world where everyone experiencing a mental health problem gets support and respect, please consider making a gift to Mind in your will. Thank you.
Pete experienced a panic attack, on his way to a work conference. He didn't feel safe, so contacted our Infoline for support. Watch Pete tell his story, and find out how we helped him when he needed support.
After taking care of loved ones, you may choose to include a gift in your will to a cause you care about - like Mind. There are three main types of gift that you can include in your will. These are:
A cash gift, known as a pecuniary gift is a fixed sum of money, for example £5000. These gifts are paid out of your estate first, and then what is left is divided up as per your instructions in you will.
This type of gift is a share of your estate, for example 5%. Many people divide their estate into 100 equal units, and after giving to family and loved ones, they gift a number of units to Mind.
A specific gift is a nominated object, for example artwork, a collection of records, or an antique. If you want to keep a particular item in your family, then this could be a good way to pass the item on.
We work together in partnership with our network of local Minds. Each local Mind is an independent charity and is responsible for their own funding and services.
In 2017-18 over 425,000 people were supported by local Mind services. Local Minds understand the needs of their community and they tailor their services to match. Services include talking therapies, peer support, advocacy, crisis care, employment and housing support.
If you would like your gift to fund a local Mind please contact that charity directly.
Terms and conditions apply. Full details can be found on the Free Wills Month website.
