Discretionary Legacies

I was reading the latest issue of Codicil - the magazine by Smee & Ford and I came across this comment:

"Do apply to discretionary legacy trusts that have any link with your charity such as locality, or look for a more personal link."

This was very interesting to me as a fairly new legacy fundraiser. I know that Smee & Ford can produce discretionary legacy reports, which I will look into, but the article mentioned that the charity in question found a substantial discretionary legacy after a "two minute search on Google." Am I missing a trick? I searched Google and found nothing! Does anyone know of any other way to get this information other than though Smee & Ford or maybe even what I should could be searching for on Google!

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Kathryn
