This is hospice care
National Legacy Campaign

Uniting a sector to protect the future of care

With hospice funding under threat and competition for legacy giving increasing, we partnered with Hospice UK and 143 independent hospices to launch a groundbreaking national TV campaign to inspire more people to leave a Gift in their Will to their chosen hospice.

Challenge

To tackle a decline in hospice legacy giving, we needed to cut through on the national stage - becoming the most visible charity TV campaign at key legacy-giving moments.

RAW Truth™

Societal truth

Hospices are often misperceived as "dark" or "gloomy" places you only go to die.

Human truth

Finding that hospice care is ‘more’ than people think it really motivating for supporters.

Brand truth

Leveraging national cause awareness to influence long-term legacy giving behaviours is a huge opportunity.

Media truth

TV is the most influential channel for legacy among key 55+ audiences, alongside radio and press.

Celebrate the incredible breadth of hospice care - and why it’s vital we protect it.

Solution

This is hospice care is a unifying and flexible campaign that highlights the surprising and unexpected diversity of hospice care; from children and adult hospices; to care at-home or in a hospice building; to the joy, sadness and the bittersweet moments experienced by the people they support.

It works alongside the overarching legacy proposition; Help hospice care live on for all, for now, forever.

Through creative testing with Humankind Research, we carefully crafted this to work alongside hospices’ own messaging, while ensuring it taps into key legacy giving motivators.
