Every story your charity tells shapes how people understand your work and the people behind it. Done well, storytelling can inspire action, build trust and strengthen your reputation. Done poorly, it can unintentionally reinforce stereotypes, undermine dignity, or damage relationships with the people you're trying to support.
Join the Tech For Good Alliance to discover how the Manchester Tech for Good Catalyst can support your organisation through tailored technology support—and sign up to get started on the day.
Following the launch of the Manchester Tech for Good Catalyst—a major three-year initiative supported by Manchester City Council, convened alongside Manchester Digital and techUK, and delivered by the Tech for Good Alliance—we are inviting Manchester-based charities, social enterprises, and not-for-profits to an exclusive information session.
This session will cover the basics to help you find and apply for funding for your small charity or community group including:
Could influencers help your charity reach new audiences? Join Media Trust for an expert webinar on the basics of working with influencers.
Influencer marketing isn’t just for big brands and big budgets. The right creator can help your charity reach new audiences, tell powerful stories and build genuine connections with communities who might not otherwise encounter your work.
But how do you find influencers who genuinely align with your cause? What makes a good partnership? And how can charities make collaborations work when time and resources are limited?
Giving you a practical insight to help you plan and deliver digital fundraising successfully for your organisation.
With ever-increasing digital fundraising tools and platforms available, it can be overwhelming if you don’t know where to start, and a drain on limited time and resources if you don’t know what is going to work for your specific organisation and fundraising needs.
Even if your organisation doesn't have an official policy or subscription to an AI service, employees, volunteers and service users are using it: sometimes for good, sometimes for bad. That’s why it's more important than ever that every VSCE organisation has a robust ethical position on AI, not just a tick box policy.
Most people involved in charities, CICs and community organisations spend a lot of time doing — supporting people, answering emails, chasing funding, solving problems and keeping things moving.
The Thinking Shop is a 90-minute facilitated session exploring a simple question:
How much of what we are busy doing is actually helping us do what we exist to do?
It isn’t a training course. There are no presentations and no expert standing at the front with all the answers.
Join Charity Digital for a one-hour masterclass to supercharge your productivity with AI prompt engineering, covering platforms such as ChatGPT, Copilot, Gemini, and more.
Attendees, for just £20 per person, will learn exactly how to craft effective prompts, boost their AI capabilities, and streamline operations and processes.
Most people now know how to ask AI a question but getting consistently useful and ethical outputs requires going a step further.
Excel is an incredibly useful tool to help you store, analyse and present your data. Even with basic skills there’s a lot you can do to help with your organisation’s monitoring and evaluation practice - but how do you get started?
Join this practical session from Charity Digital to navigate the Excel ribbon and create, format, sort and filter your spreadsheets. We’ll introduce basic auto and manual formulae and why you should be using Tables. We’ll also cover splitting and joining columns and inserting basic charts.
