How to make a bequest to Kettering Mind

A legacy or bequest is the only donation that just about anyone can make. It is often the greatest donation that anyone does make. A gift in your Will to support Kettering Mind will benefit our work immediately and can make a lasting contribution for generations to come.

Your will is very personal, and we strongly advise you to consult your legal advisor before drafting a new will or updating an existing one. We are always happy to discuss your wishes and intentions but we are unable to offer direct legal or financial advice on Will making or estate planning.

If you do decide to donate to Kettering Mind through your Will, then you can choose to give a percentage of your estate or a specific amount. Your solicitor or other legal advisor will help you draft your will but a suggestion for the wording might be:

• "I give the whole (or a percentage share) of the residue of my estate to Kettering Mind….." OR
• "I give free of tax the sum of £ (in figures and words) to Kettering Mind to be used for its general charitable purposes, and I declare that the receipt of the Treasurer or other duly authorised officer shall be a full and sufficient discharge to my Executors."
