Issues affecting legacy fundraising

Having just finished another ‘Remember a Charity’ week (I hope yours was successful in promoting legacy gifts) I thought it might be helpful to look at some policy areas that legacy fundraisers should be aware of.

There are discussed in detail at https://www.rememberacharity.org.uk/about-us/latest-news/five-policy-issues-every-legacy-fundraiser-should-know-about/ and include:

  • Protecting tax incentives for charitable bequests
  • Delays at probate
  • Scottish legislative changes
  • Law Commission Wills project
  • Support Will-writing
