Following the launch of the CASE-More UK Philanthropy Report ( https://www.morepartnership.com/library/CASE_More_UK_Philanthropy_Report.pdf ) at the Council for Advancement and Support of Education Europe Conference in Edinburgh, we bring you the second in our series of blogs exploring topics emerging from the report’s findings and recommendations.

Today, our focus is on legacies, which currently generate around 25% of all income given to higher education by individuals. And while 2022 was a record year for legacy donations in the UK, the report highlights this income stream as an area of untapped potential across higher education.

To explore this with us is Anna Wall, Head of Regular Giving and Legacy Giving at Imperial College London and More Partners Rosie Dale and Simon O'Leary, who bring legacy expertise from across the higher education and charity sector.

Last week, we were pleased to launch the CASE-More UK Philanthropy Report in partnership with the Council for Advancement and Support of Education.

The report, ‘Accelerating ambitions: a decade of giving to higher education and how it informs the future’, revisits the predictions and recommendations of the 2012 Review of Philanthropy in UK Higher Education (Pearce Report), with a 10-year analysis of fundraising trends to inform future directions - you can read the report here:https://www.morepartnership.com/library/CASE_More_UK_Philanthropy_Report.pdf

Over the coming weeks we’ll be inviting colleagues from across Higher Education to discuss what the findings mean for the sector and the advancement profession.
