The FSI's trustees are sorry to announce we are closing our doors today, after 15 great years. Our recent focus has been working with members & partners to protect the contribution the FSI has made to the small charity sector. See the official statement: bit.ly/3p97hCL
Thank you to all the small charities out there for the amazing work you do, and to the many individuals and organisations supporting the sector.
Alongside @TheFSI's chair, @NCVO will be hosting an online event on 20th April at 2pm to discuss the future of small charity infrastructure. Thank you to those who have already signed up. If you can attend, please book to join the conversation: booking.ncvo.org.uk/event/se…
Thank you for the outpouring of support after the FSI's closure announcement. With help from @NCVO and small charity sector advocates, we will hold open discussions on existing provision and ways our legacy might be sustained. Get involved in talks: ow.ly/c5Gg50NnN3T

This is really sad news, for @TheFSI and, in a wider context, for the #Charity sector. More than ever we need to come together, and the loss of any vitally important charity is heartbreaking, especially at a time when demand for services is already soaring – at Merton, London
The trustees of the FSI are sorry to announce we have taken the difficult decision to formally wind up the charity as of Spring 2023. Please see our official statement for more details: thefsi.org/post/press-releas…

this was actually gutting, the work you guys did was so important and really helped me in my early days as a fundraiser, and helped the charity I worked with

So sorry to hear this. Such a loss for the small charity sector. @CHWchildren benefitted greatly from @TheFSI's trainings. I'm grateful to everyone who was part of the FSI and who made all the trainings and resources possible. My thoughts are with the team at the FSI now.

I'm so sad to hear this, FSI training was hugely helpful for me when I got my first job as a fundraiser and opened up a world of charity expertise to me.

I was lucky to partner with @TheFSI for many years on #SmallCharitiesWeek and @Media_Trust's Digital Leadership Programme where their insights were invaluable. My thoughts are with the @TheFSI team past and present, and the Trustees who had to make this very difficult decision 🫶🏽

We are incredibly sad to read this. The FSI has offered us incredible support and they genuinely understood the real capacity and challenges of smaller organisations. This is such a loss for the sector.
