Legacy Gifts - 
Empower Today's Youth for a Healthier Tomorrow

Legacy Gifts

Leaving a gift in your Will is a very special way to help support the mental health and wellbeing of young people in Mid Wales.


We know that your family and friends will always come first, but when writing your Will, please do consider your legacy in helping to end young people struggling with their mental health for good.


We understand that leaving a gift in your Will is a huge decision, and we want to make sure that you have all of the information you need to be comfortable with your decision.


As detailed by the Fundraising Regulator, ‘It is sensible to seek independent legal advice if you are thinking of leaving a charitable gift in your will to ensure you have fulfilled the necessary legal requirements. Further information on accessing legal advice can be found on the Citizens Advice website.’


Thank you for your support.

Since its inception in 1997 Rekindle has worked alongside people struggling with their mental health. We now focus on 16-25 year olds to offer early intervention and prevention for those at risk of mental health problems or those already suffering mental distress such as depression, anxiety or who are self-harming.


In the six months from November 2023 – April 2024 our referrals increased by over 100% when compared with the same period in 2022-2023. We continue to receive requests for support direct from young people, their families and statutory and third sector services in Mid Wales.


According to a Senedd Research article published in 2022, ‘research has found that for every 100 adults in Wales, 47 suffered at least one ACE [adverse childhood experience] during their childhood and 14 suffered four or more.’ It also asserts that mental health is affected by poverty. Since the report was published the nation has faced further challenges with the cost of living crisis. Add to this the isolation of rural living and subsequent limited access to services and you can see why the need for Rekindle and organisations like us is growing.


Legacy gifts ensure that Rekindle can continue to furnish today's youth with the essential support to enhance their mental well-being, cultivate resilience, and embrace a healthy future.
