To raise the monies Member of RICS matrics worked together to organise Auctions, Raffles, rattled collection tins, throwing themselves into the challenge and in one case out of an aeroplane (with a parachute) to raise money any which way they could.

Whilst many members might assume LionHeart is for retired members, in fact 87% of new beneficiaries are of working age and 3% are under 35.  RICS matrics provides networking, support and other opportunities for students, trainees and newly qualified members of RICS.
