‘Empowering Communities Together’ is the theme of the UK’s largest gathering of professionals involved in local giving and philanthropy which will take place in Glasgow in September.

As the concept of place-based funding is receiving so much attention across our sector, what better time to review the challenges and opportunities faced by the funding network!

This year’s conference has something for everyone in terms both of information and inspiration. With distinguished speakers and workshop leaders from around the international Community Foundation family, the three days allow attendees the time to be bold and creative, engaging with colleagues from the network and beyond to design their role as community leaders.

Jayne Woodley, CEO, Oxford Community Foundation will be chairing a workshop on ‘How digitally enabled is your CF? Do you feel confident that you’re making best use of the tools and platforms that could save you time and resources? Are you using something that others could benefit from knowing about? Oxfordshire CF is often seen as a digital pioneer, being first in the network to embrace the potential of tools including 360 Giving, The Good Exchange, Breathe HR and Local Insights. This workshop will explore how CFs can realise the benefits that digital can bring.’ The workshop will be held at 09:45 on Tuesday 10th November.
