Episode 3 | How to create a proactive legacy giving programme

In this episode, the team dive into Amy's favourite topic - legacy giving. They explore the common myths and latest stats, including:

  • Today, 78% of UK wealth is held by 'baby boomers', with as much as £5b forecast to be given away by 2050
  • Short-termism in fundraising planning and how putting off a proactive legacy campaign could cost you many future major gifts.
  • These are the most unforgettable people you may never have met.

So, if you’re keen to build your confidence around making the most life affirming of fundraising asks, you can now watch or listen to Episode 3.
