START YOUR ENTRYThis award recognises an exceptional collaboration between an organisation and the legacy giving community that has delivered outstanding results for the charities they support.
Open to a wide range of partners — from estate search firms and property services to professional networks and technology providers — this category celebrates those who have gone beyond a supplier role to become trusted and valued partners to the sector.
Judges will be looking for examples of innovation, collaboration and measurable impact — such as improving efficiency, strengthening stewardship, or increasing legacy income. The winner will show a genuine commitment to supporting best practice, sharing insight, and helping legacy professionals achieve more for their causes and donors.
Entrants should provide clear evidence of their achievements and contributions to the sector over the last 12–18 months, with supporting examples up to the awards entry deadline.
Eligibility
Open to third-party (non-charity) organisations working alongside the charity legacy sector.
