Your gift for people with a learning disability
By including a gift in your Will to Mencap you will be giving people with a learning disability someone to turn to. Someone who will fight their corner, and someone who will ensure they’re seen and respected as individuals. You can make their wish your Will, supporting our work to make the UK the best place in the world for people with a learning disability to live happy, healthy lives.

“I chose to leave a gift in my Will to Mencap in memory of my sister, June, who had Down’s syndrome. June was an amazing person. I’m lucky that she was my sister.
There’s one thing that I think should apply to every person, and certainly to everyone with a learning disability – and that is to be treated with dignity. So I hope that my gift means others get the support and understanding they need.”
Cynthia, Mencap supporter
