Gift Aid

If you're a UK tax payer, £3 would be worth £3.75 with Gift Aid

When you give money to Rethink under Gift Aid, we will reclaim basic rate tax on that money - currently 25 pence to the pound. If you are a UK tax payer, this means that £1.00 would be worth £1.25 just so long as donations are made through Gift Aid. Imagine what a difference that could make and at no extra cost to you. We can only claim Gift Aid where your full name and home address is provided.

Christmas and Loneliness 

Please donate now to help provide what could be life-saving support for those impacted by serious mental illness and finding Christmas to be the loneliest time of year. 

Loneliness comes in many forms, particularly around Christmas. Whether or not someone celebrates the festive period, this time of year can be very hard for people living with mental illness, who might feel they need to live up to certain expectations. This can lead to feeling isolated and disconnected, even around their loved ones, resulting in their symptoms being heightened and their mind going to very dark places.
