Hi All, Please find attached agenda and meeting details for Friday's LMG - As you know, we are fully booked so if you are now unable to attend, please do let...
Is it merely semantics, fashion or the result of authoritive study, which suggests which term (and why) - whether legacy giving, bequests, gift in wills etc -...
Hi Gale I haven't seen an in-depth study, but I've heard it said that 'legacy' implies a large amount of money, and therefore might put some people off from...
How effective is legacy advertising really - or is that an old chestnut?! ________________________________ From: Legacymarketing@... ...

Hi All, as many of your know we test language in all our focus groups and having done over 1000 it is relatively clear that bequest is: seen to be American,...
I would add to that the thought that legacy development is such a subtle and sensitive area, it's better to underplay the initial mention than go in like a...

Hi all Have you thought about becoming a trustee? (If you’re not already!) I just wanted to get an idea of peoples interest as a great deal of the charities...
I agree, plant the seed/thought and warm the supporter to the idea and concept that they can remember you with a gift in their Will - we are assuming there is...
Yes, I too agree with this approach. It is true to say that since I was one to one legacy fundraising at RNIB around 6 years ago that many of the people that I...
I agree too. We deliberately mix up the use of "legacy" and "gift in will" / "Remember Cancer Research UK" in our literature and conversations, to try to...
Hi I'm looking into whether we should be advertising in this publication and wondered if anyone had any opinions on it? Particularly if there are any hospice...
Dear all We recently received the email below and I'd appreciate any comments on it. I seem to remember some correspondence last year in which the consensus...
Elizabeth, my response to supporters who ask is only to recommend at least three experienced probate solicitors. Not only one professional. I recommend...
I would definitely ignore that email but PLEASE do read the new IoF Code of Practice which has clear guidelines on all these issues. Richard Richard Radcliffe...
Hi Elizabeth, As I do both the legacy marketing and admin I was at the CLOM meeting earlier in the year where the Institute of Legacy Managers (ILM) invited...
At the last Institute of Legacy Management gathering, we had a speaker from the Institute of Professional Willwriters. We were all, against our better...

Sorry for the delay in circulating this to you but I have had internet access issues! Name Iain McAndrew Title Development Manager - Legacies & Trusts Tel:...
Hi All My name is Dan Carter and I have just started in a new role as Legacy Marketing Manager at St Dunstan's.(2 months in!) Previously I worked for Acorns...
Trust and Legacy Fundraiser Closing date: 16/11/2007 Full-time (36 hrs) or part-time (29 hrs) If you are a motivated self-starter with excellent communication...
Bit of a random question...but, if a testator were illiterate how would the Will or any codicils be validated? Has anyone come across this before? Yours from...
I will be out of the office starting 01/11/2007 and will not return until 02/11/2007. Please be assured I will deal with your email as a priority on my...
Most of the users of our service at Calibre have sight problems, so many of them can't read the print copy of their wills before signing them. There is an...
Is there any evidence that we need some kind of national Will Register, to ascertain who wrote the most recent copy of a will/codicil, when, and where it is...
Hi there I came across something today when I was speaking to one of our supporters who wants to include us in his will. He told me that his will had just been...
Hi Charlotte I suspect you'll get a bunch of divergent opinions to this one. Yes, a charity can be an executor of a Will and yes, the charity can benefit under...
Hi Everyone, Does anyone have information they could share on using 'legacy propensity' profiling on their supporter database? I'm especially interested in...
I would only add that to act as Executor (even if the work is delegated to an external solicitor) the charity needs to be a registered Trust Corporation, and...
Hi Charlotte,
My thoughts converge with Duncan's on your question. I would however,
in dealing with an individual inquiry, have a stronger response to the...
Hi Thanks everyone for their advice, it's certainly been a learning experience for me! I have actually heard from the charity in question, they obviously ...
