In this webinar, Emily will share details about why she originally decided to go virtual with her charity's Light Up A Life appeal several years ago, how she did it, and how you can replicate the appeal's success in your own organisation. She'll be sharing examples of other virtual hospice fundraising appeals and making some suggestions on how to hold a virtual Light Up A Light service in the comfort of your supporter's own homes. Guest speaker, Claire Ashby from the Heart of Kent Hospice, will also be telling us about how their hospice has organised a virtual sunflower service, which is taking place next week. We'll allow plenty of time for discussion and questions, so we can support each other to find solutions to the challenges we may face this year.

Emily is an In Memory Fundraising Consultant and Co-Founder of Visufund, and has worked in fundraising for over 13 years. Since 2015, she has helped to deliver almost 100 virtual Christmas appeals for hospices and charities worldwide (including many LUAL Appeals), and has spent the last 12 months supporting her local hospice to develop their individual giving programme, including the introduction of virtual giving and the delivery of their Forget Me Not and Lights of Love appeals.
