BacZac His Legacy

Who we are

BacZac His Legacy is a charity that has been created by the family and friends of Zac Forskitt.

BacZac His Legacy was created by both friends in Northampton and Nottingham, where Zac was at University studying, with the aid of patrons of Old Northamptonians pulled together to create #BacZac. The selling of #BacZac beanies along with many fundraising efforts, people looked to raise money to support not only Zac but his family with the many obstacles along the way. In November 2017 BacZac his Legacy was awarded Charity Status, a very poignant moment for all those involved.

About Zac

Zac at the age of 20 was diagnosed with 2 rare forms of cancer. Unfortunately in March 2016 Zac lost his brave and courageous battle and it was soon decided from the experiences Zac’s family had experienced that a legacy would be created in Zac’s honour, helping other young adults going through similar trials and tribulations.
