If you would like to become a member of the Charity Forum please either complete the on-line registration form or email Sandy Waters.
Membership of the Forum includes access to the following:
Forums
The Forums are hosted by Paris Smith and comprise short presentations and open discussions, with the main thrust focusing on the latter. To facilitate the discussion and add value the Forums are also attended by a panel of professionals, the constitution of which is guided by the prevailing feedback of the participants. The Forums provide the opportunity for chief executives and trustees to meet and exchange ideas and experiences with their peers and the professionals.
Travelling Forums are on the same basis but hosted in their locality by and at the request of a member or group of members to consider issues with the legal, accountancy, banking or property sectors of interest to them.
