CFDG is delighted to announce its first one day conference outside of London. An exciting new event for finance professionals in the voluntary sector, we are bringing together a strong programme of national and regional speakers from both the voluntary and corporate sector.

The day, designed to support finance professionals in their delivery of an ever growing and demanding role, will enable you to develop the current thinking in your charity and enhance the finance and support services you provide.

We are delighted to announce that this year's annual conference was our largest ever with a record attendance of almost 600 delegates.

Everyone agreed it was a rewarding, fun packed day with remarkable speakers and stimulating presentations, so a huge thank you to all those who attended and made it such a memorable event.
