Now in its 7th year, the Excellence in Legacy Administration (ELA) conference brings together leading professionals to share expertise and insights on the latest challenges in legacy administration.
With rising pressure on legacy teams to secure income and stay on top of cases, administration professionals must keep informed on the changes to charity law, developments in Government policy, probate notification timelines, and industry best practise.
In addition to offering the very latest sector updates, ELA provides a unique opportunity in which to hear directly from your charity peers - who offer their experience and practical insights into the challenges of working in legacy administration – as well as the very latest analysis into legacy income trends.
Combining panel sessions, data analysis, and case studies - the day provides both inspiration and first-hand solutions on strategy and best practice, as well as highlighting the challenges for the coming year.
