Using real life case studies from Scottish charities who have had great success in recruiting participants for sponsored events, this session is a must for those looking to expand their event recruitment.

Our speakers will share hints & tips from their own experiences of event recruitment.

Delighted to tell you our first speaker; Gillian McManus; Senior Community Fundraiser at SAMH. This session will look at their success with recruiting for the Edinburgh Marathon Festival (a follow on from the conference session in 2015).

Our second speaker is Lisa Glenday; Really Wild Challenges, who will be chatting through her success at organising an overseas trek at her previous job, highlighting the success and pitfalls.

Please note that this session is being held in the afternoon from 2pm-4pm as it is followed by our Christmas Social.

Festive Fun!

Following the session we will be holding our annual Christmas Social event. This is a great opportunity to enjoy some drinks and snacks and network with your fellow fundraisers.

We have a festive area reserved in Akva from 4pm (129 Fountainbridge, Edinburgh EH3 9QG). There will be nibbles and drinks, as well as party games, so do pop along, even if just for an hour!
