Innovation in Charities: Community of Practice

A peer community for charity innovation leads.

One thing came through loudly when we wrote our Innovation in UK Charities report: innovation leads wanted a better way to connect with peers facing the same challenges.

Our Community of Practice is for people leading or working in innovation in UK charities and the wider impact space, a place to meet peers, take inspiration from what’s working elsewhere, and work through the sector’s shared problems together.

Each session is two hours, hosted at a different charity’s office and every session ends at the pub, because the best conversations happen afterwards.

Between sessions, there’s an always-on Slack community to connect, ask questions and share what you’re learning.

Session 1 — hosted by Marie Curie

Our first session is hosted by Gemma Rawlins, Head of Fundraising Innovation at Marie Curie.

The question we’ll start from: How do we make the case for innovation in a system that craves certainty?

If you're leading innovation at your charity and would like to know more do get in touch.
