When you leave a gift in your will, you help ensure that we can continue to be here for anyone who needs us.

Leave a lasting legacy

It’s never been more important for us to be at the end of the phone when someone calls our helpline. It’s a life-saving service, and you can help secure its future.

That’s why we’re asking you if you can do something incredible and leave a legacy that can save lives.

We know it’s a tough ask, but donations and legacy gifts from people like you keep our helpline running. Leaving a gift in your will means you will make a real difference to so many people’s futures. And we’ve partnered with Farewill to make the process simple.

How to leave a gift in your will

CALM can help you get an up-to-date will, for free, in a way that works best for you. When you write or update your will, you can also do something incredible: leave a legacy that could save lives.

125 lives are lost to suicide every week in the UK. CALM exists to change that. But we need your help to continue to be there for anyone who needs support.

Types of gifts to leave

There are 4 main ways to leave a gift in your will:

Residuary Gift
This type of gift is a share of your estate. After you have provided for your loved ones, you can leave a share of what remains to charity. This is known as a ‘residuary gift’.
Pecuniary Gift
This is when you leave an exact sum of money to us. It's known as a 'pecuniary gift'.
Specific Gift
A specific gift is a nominated object, for example an artwork, an antique or a piece of jewellery. This is a good way to keep an item in the family.
A Gift in Trust
You can leave a gift for someone to use over a period of time. When the time has ended, the gift can be passed on to other recipients, such as a charity.
