Presentations

 

Here are some of the presentations I have given at conferences over the years.

I’ve written a ‘nuts and bolts’ fundraising course. It takes 60 hours of study and is accredited by no-one. It comes in handy self-contained two hour sessions and so I can run freestanding sessions on specific issues such as project management, public speaking, values, volunteer management and so on.
