1848 Legacy Society

A legacy is a thoughtful way to provide for the people who are important to you, to help causes you support and to honour the influences that have shaped your life.

Anyone within the Lancing Community is invited to become a member of the 1848 Society when they pledge a commitment to leaving the College a legacy. On receipt of a bequest, the legator’s name is inscribed on a board in Great School to reflect the College’s gratitude. The honours board hangs amongst all the portraits of Lancing’s previous Head Masters and is a lasting tribute to our benefactors and their generosity.

The 2022 annual 1848 Society Event will be held in London in the Advent Term, and we will be asking members to bring a guest who is interested in joining the Society.

We are also looking at planting trees in memory of our legacy donors on the College estate. Names will be recorded in a Lancing Tree Book and families will be invited to attend the tree planting ceremony in memory of their loved one.

If you would like more information about becoming a member of the 1848 Society, please contact Catherine Reeve in the Foundation Office on 01273 465 786.
