Why leave a gift in your Will?

Gifts in Wills enable you to help us support the Armed Forces community for generations to come.

A gift left to RBL allows us to provide a wide range of services: from improving physical and mental wellbeing, expert guidance, and financial and employment support, which all help our Forces family to overcome the disadvantages they may encounter due to life in service.

Here’s how a gift in your Will could help:

4. How we help

Last year, RBL helped over 30,000 members of the Armed Forces community in UK and 31 countries overseas including support to alleviate loneliness, physical and emotional support, debt and money advice, and support through bereavement.

Some of the best people to tell you why you should leave a gift to RBL are those who have already done so.

Did you know that a gift of 1% in your Will to RBL will make a life-changing difference to the Armed Forces community, and will leave 99% for your family to inherit.
