Free remembrance support for Independents
Independent funeral directors have a range of ways to get more involved in remembrance day through Golden Charter’s charity partnership with The Royal British Legion and Poppyscotland.
The plan provider has launched an autumn fundraising campaign to support the Poppy Appeal, and is offering funeral directors free support to help raise £250,000. Independents can get involved by registering for a free fundraising toolkit.
Malcolm Flanders, Director of Funeral Director Sales, explained: “Last year we aimed for £100,000 and in the end we not only passed that mark but went on to make more than a third extra. This year we are stretching our charity target even further, so we really want to get behind Independents in the local community.
“Our free support can help raise your business’ local profile as well as raising funds. Support can include anything from digital materials to press releases, as well as support packs from the charities themselves.”
The toolkit order form allows funeral directors to personalise it to suit your requirements.
Fundraising ideas included in Golden Charter’s registration form are all centred around the theme of hope, and include sponsored walks, coffee mornings, and the return of last year’s successful window display campaign.
