Our past winners
Arian Thornton
Marie Curie Cancer Care
“This is such a big achievement for me. Having only been in the world of charity legacy administration for a few months, I feel it’s so important to develop my knowledge and learn as much as I can about legacy administration. I hope to now start working towards the CiCLA qualification this year, and I’m really looking forward to getting started.”
Laura Simpson-Toyne
Bransby Horses
“Bransby Horses relies solely on support from the general public to help us continue our rescue, rehabilitation, welfare and influencing equine welfare work and the majority of our income comes from the legacies created by our kind supporters. I hope that gaining this qualification and receiving mentoring will broaden my knowledge base enabling me to carry out my role as an Assistant Legacy Officer for the charity to the best of my ability and to progress my career in the world of legacies.”
