Gifts in Wills

Gifts in Wills, whatever the size, make a big difference. 

A gift in your Will enables NRAS to continue to develop and deliver vital services to those living with RA and JIA, now and in the future.

Your gift will mean that people living with RA or JIA, will have access to high-quality information about their condition. They will have the opportunity to speak to a trained volunteer or helpline professional who can listen to them when they may feel confused and alone.

Your gift will enable NRAS to support those with RA and JIA at every stage, with a referral programme that connects those newly diagnosed with our services.

Why make a Will?

If you have not made a Will, your surviving family and friends may experience complications with your estate being divided according to law, not your wishes. If you have no surviving family, your entire estate will go to the state.

Leaving a Will lets you take care of your assets, your loved ones and the causes you care about after you are gone.

A gift of as little as  1%  of your estate can help us continue to do amazing things!

Gillian's story

Gillian left a gift in her Will to help future RA generations. As a consequence, NRAS will be able to support more people diagnosed and living with RA, thanks to supporters like Gillian.

Gillian was introduced to NRAS through her rheumatology team, and has since become a member, takes part in research projects, attends talks and has read all the publications. 

“I was 62 years old when the juggernaut of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) came my way – bringing with it severe pain and fatigue, not to mention confusion and anxiety. 

NRAS is a charity that I believe speaks for ME, along with all other people living with RA and JIA in the UK and because of this, I wished to support NRAS in a lasting way. 

I decided to leave a gift to NRAS in my Will. 

When thinking of writing your Will, you may become nostalgic of your childhood, bringing back fond memories with family and friends. 

For me, I remember diving into the tin of Quality Street that my Dad had brought home and enjoying my favourite sweet – the toffee penny. Every time I eat one, it takes me back to that time.” 

After thinking of your loved ones, and taking care of them in your Will, why not leave a gift to NRAS, because there’s nothing sweeter than leaving a gift for future generations living with RA and JIA.
