Giving

At WPF Therapy, we understand how different life chances affect mental health. We have an explicit commitment to equality of opportunity and our charitable work aims to make affordable therapy more readily available.

Research has helped establish that psychotherapy and counselling really do make a positive difference. It can help a person who feels lost gain direction and someone who feels empty to find meaning in their life. We work with fear, low self esteem, anger, distress, loss, bereavement and neglect. We work to help people have greater clarity about their needs and choice about their behaviour, and ultimately to have the peace of mind that so many people are searching for.

WPF Therapy sees people with serious long term physical illness and we work with people who know they are dying, as well as with carers. We work with young adults, to help them establish their adult identity, and with older people adjusting to personal change. But most of our work is with people who are just unhappy - about the way they are leading their lives, about difficult events they are trying to come to terms with, about their future prospects. These issues can affect all of us at some time during our lives.

At WPF Therapy, we see the potential of everyone to benefit from therapy. Private therapy can be costly. We want to make sure that price is not a barrier to feeling better.

This is why we need your help.

Leaving a gift to WPF in your will

Leaving a legacy to WPF Therapy is not complicated, but it does need to be included in a professionally made will.

If you have already made a will, but would like to add a gift to WPF Therapy, you can do so by making a simple addition or codicil. A codicil will enable you to include new instructions and delete old ones without rewriting the whole will.

If you do not have a will at the moment, you may need to see a solicitor. Although you may have to pay a fee, you will receive sound professional advice.

There are two main ways of giving to WPF Therapy in your will

• Pecuniary gift - giving a gift of a fixed amount of money
• Residuary gift - choosing to leave a share, or the whole, of what is left in your estate after your other legacies and any outstanding costs have been dealt with.
