Talk Details
82% of charities recognise the need for fundraising innovation, but few know what ‘innovation’ means or how to do it properly.
This uncertainty leaves you feeling anxious, left out, and maybe a little overwhelmed.
We’re here to help!
2024’s Fundraising Innovation Conference, curated by Amy Hutchings, aims to support fundraisers in four key areas;
1: What is ‘innovation’?
2: How to ‘do’ innovation at any scale and size
3: How to know it’s working
4: How to keep going
With workshops, presentations, and breakout sessions for charities of all sizes, this conference will give you the insights, understanding, and confidence to kick-start, or elevate, innovation at your charity.
Registrants will also be invited to local innovation pop-ups around the UK and Ireland to watch the conference with other fundraisers and experience in-person workshops*
Programme will be announced in March. Early-bird ticket prices available until then!
*subject to local host availability – we’re working on it!
