How we’re run

Our Executive and Campaign Council are made up of representatives from a mix of member charities of varying sizes and causes.

The Executive group meet regularly to monitor the progress of the campaign and to provide strategic direction and support to the Remember A Charity team.

The wider Campaign Council, including the Executive group, meet quarterly to review, consult and advise on the campaign, guiding our ongoing decision-making in line with our mission of growing the legacy market.
