A Letter in Mind is The National Brain Appeal's annual art fundraiser.

Each year hundreds of artists put time, effort and creativity into making unique artworks for A Letter in Mind. They come from across the UK and beyond, and include household names and professional artists, people who have been creating art for a lifetime and people who are just starting to dip their toe into drawing or painting.

This year’s well-known contributors include Sarah Arnold, Orlanda Broom, Stephen Campbell Moore, Laurie Chetwood, Agnieszka Dale, Polly Dunbar, Kevin Eldon, Mark Entwisle, James Fleet, Lindy Heymann, Tim Hopgood, Frank Kiely, Anita Mangan, Andrew Marr, Luke Morgan, Ishbel Myerscough, Morag Myerscough, Sir Grayson Perry, Harry Pye, Dame Zandra Rhodes, Martin Rowson, Axel Scheffler, Amin Taha, Paul Thurlby, Hannah Walters, Greg Wise, Sarah Wood and Bethan Woollvin.

Buying an artwork envelope will help us fund advances that the neurological community so desperately needs.
