Small Charities Programme
CFG provides support, training and resources for charity finance professionals across the sector, including specific information for smaller charities.
CFG are keen to support and work with small charities wherever possible: doing so allows us to better understand the issues facing smaller organisations, and helps us to ensure that your views are represented when we’re talking to policymakers and officials.
CFG is proud to announce that it is running an exciting innovative small charities programme pilot, starting in 2016.
The purpose of the programme is to develop the knowledge and financial capabilities of small charities. The programme aims to help them to inform their decision making, improving their resilience and increasing the difference they make in their communities. The programme will deliver affordable, relevant, useful financial training and free downloadable resources aimed at small charities in different locations across England and Wales.
Please note a small charity for this programme is defined as a charity whose annual income is £1million or less.
