This year’s theme, Fostering Financial Resilience, explores how charities can respond confidently to today’s economic and regulatory landscape, strengthen governance and make informed investment decisions for the future.

What to expect

Through keynote presentations and interactive breakout sessions, we’ll explore the issues shaping the charity sector today, including:

  • The current state of the charity sector

  • The investment outlook for charities

  • AI’s evolving environmental impact

  • Total return investing and income strategies

  • Managing investment risk in concentrated markets

  • The potential impact of 2027 inheritance tax changes on charitable giving

  • Leadership lessons from social enterprise

You’ll also have the opportunity to tailor your experience by selecting breakout sessions most relevant to your organisation, before networking with fellow delegates and industry experts over lunch.

Spaces are limited and early registration is recommended.
