About the TSI Scotland Network 2025 Conference
Staff from Third Sector Interfaces (TSIs) across Scotland – from the islands to the Borders and every bit in between – will come together on 28th and 29th October 2025 in Glasgow building on last year's successful conference in Edinburgh.
The conference has been planned based on feedback from last year and TSIs are coming together at one of the most challenging times that many of us can ever remember for the voluntary and community sector, for volunteering and for social enterprise.
We’ve had over 14 years of austerity; the pandemic has changed many lives and communities irrevocably. And now we face significant cost-of living-challenges which profoundly affect community groups and charities on the front line.
Building on last year's conference - the first in many years - for day one TSI staff will be offered a practice day to help you strengthen how we support our communities from volunteering to changes afffecting trustees. Day two will focus on the big policy changes ahead and how the TSI Network and TSIs respond to developing trends and the social and economic challenges facing Scotland. And, as we look ahead to the 2026 Scottish elections, how do we ensure that the community and voluntary sector is being heard?
A full agenda will be published here as we secure our speakers and contributors.
We look forward to welcoming some amazing and influential keynote speakers and showcasing some of the talented and experienced staff from across the Network.
