ACO Annual Conference 2022 (+Awards Ceremony)

Join us for our first in-person conference since 2019 bringing together colleagues from benevolent/grant-making charities across the sector.

As charities supporting individuals have emerged post-covid, we are now facing an uncertain future where the only constant seems to be the need to embrace change.

This year’s annual conference will address some of these key challenges to the sector moving forward and look at how charities can come together collaboratively to identify common solutions.

Key sessions will include:

  • Cost of living crisis – sharing the collective experiences/responses of our charities;
  • Climate change and sustainability – what does this mean at a practical level for charities?
  • Digital inclusion – how do charities tackle the rising digital divide in our society?
  • Equality, Diversity & Inclusion – how do we build an effective EDI culture within our charities?

In addition, this year’s programme will also include our 2022 ACO Awards ceremony, celebrating the achievements of the sector.
