Including Beyond Blue in Your Will
Writing a Will isn't as complicated or expensive as you might think.
Before making the decision to leave a gift in your Will, ensure your friends and family are well looked after. Then, you may want to consider leaving a gift to Beyond Blue.
Next, we advise you to visit a solicitor to have your Will professionally written, or you can use an online option if you prefer. We recommend using a trustworthy online Will-making website like Gathered Here (where, as a Beyond Blue supporter, you can make your Will for free), or Willed.

Mental health is not well understood, there’s still a stigma around it. I strongly believe that Beyond Blue helped me when I was really sick, and I hope that my legacy gift to Beyond Blue will make a life-changing difference to Australians in the future by helping them have access to resources and 24/7 support.”
