Storytelling is one of the most powerful ways charities can demonstrate their impact, build public understanding and inspire action. This practical introductory session explores how to identify stories that bring your charity’s work to life.

Great storytelling doesn’t happen by chance. It requires clear processes, thoughtful decision-making and a commitment to putting people before content.

This practical workshop explores how charities can build an ethical, sustainable approach to gathering, managing and sharing stories from people with living and lived experience. You’ll learn how to develop a Stories Hub – a structured system for identifying, collecting, storing and using stories safely and effectively – so your charity has powerful, authentic content ready when opportunities arise.

Almost four in five charities are using artificial intelligence (AI), according to the 2026 Charity Digital Skills report, but very few are using it strategically. Many charities are asking for more guidance on how to use AI, with 60% saying they’d like more training for staff and volunteers and 48% requesting sector support on responsible AI. 

This accessible, non-technical webinar introduces essential AI literacy for charities, civil society organisations and activists. It explains how generative AI works, where it may be useful, and where caution is needed.
