chris millward, founder of legacy giving expert.

---

I have over 18 years' experience in managing charity legacy fundraising and administration.   My mission is to help legacy giving to flourish. 

I am proud to have worked for Macmillan Cancer Support and Save the Children  and to have served the wider legacy sector as a member of Remember a Charity's Campaign Council, as Chair of Will Aid and as CEO at the Institute of Legacy Management.

I am a member of  the Institute of Legacy Management and the author of the Marketing Strategy chapter of the fourth edition of the Directory for Social Change's Legacy and In Memory fundraising guide.
