“Dare to dream - we want to invest in ideas”. Fantastic talk @CIOFWestMids from @Matt_Mangan on being purposeful when developing the Giving Club - Change Makers. “All about building a community of individuals who feel greater than the sum of their parts” #WestMidlandsConference – at Birmingham, England

Really enjoying @barriehodge81 session at #WestMidlandsConference @CIOFWestMids. Great analogy of fundraising strategies being like dart boards - “you’re aiming for the bullseye and it’s not about throwing darts in all directions!” – at Birmingham, England

Really enjoying @Shahida_1_’s session on kindness in leadership at @CIOFWestMids #WestMidlandsConference and how being nice isn’t about being a walkover but about embracing gratitude, intentional and mostly…be human.

There are so many passionate fundraisers & now friends I've met through @CIOFtweets - through volunteering at the Fundraising Convention, being a part of the @CIOFWestMids Committee & more.
It’s brilliant to have people like @clairedj24 part of a volunteer community that is supporting and championing fundraisers in areas all across the UK. If you want to be part of a special network of people, who especially love all things fundraising, read more & get involved!
