Legacies provide around £3 billion income for charities every year and an increasing proportion of this is going to small and local organisations. The average value of the 123,000 gifts currently left in wills each year is £25,000. The legacy market is experiencing strong growth with the expectation that by 2025 £3.5 billion will be left to charities via legacy giving. No matter how large or small, every charity should consider how they can build a legacy income stream.
