We first analysed the UK legacy market in 1994. Working with a group of 13 leading charities. That project laid the foundations for today’s Legacy Monitor programme.
Legacy Monitor is now a consortium of over 80 charities - ranging from market leaders Cancer Research UK, RNLI and RSPCA to rising star legacy brands such as Maggie’s and WaterAid. Last year, our consortium members received £1.8bn in legacy income and 59,000 gifts in wills.
Legacy data from our members is combined with big picture economic and social trends to create an in-depth analysis of the British legacy sector. The programme covers almost half of the British legacy sector by income.
The legacy market outlook and consortium data with UK market trends, deaths and UK economic drivers collated in dedicated reports to the sector have been instrumental in our forecasting work and I have been most grateful for this information through our membership of Legacy Monitor.
