Should we trade as a charity? An Intro to Trading

As a local Manchester charity, you’ll likely be constantly thinking about how to keep enough money coming in to sustain your services and support to the community. One way of doing this that charities are increasingly being encouraged to consider is by starting to trade / charge for some of what they do.

This session is about helping Manchester charities better understand what’s meant by ‘trading’; how and when it might be a viable option for charities; and key considerations for what should be considered if a charity decides to start to ‘do some of it’.
