Testimonials
An excellent balance of the strategic context shaping the future of the charity sector combined with practical tactical updates on accounting.
ICAEW yet again delivered a sterling conference with excellent speakers and relevant and topical sessions.
Once again, it was put together very thoughtfully, covering the financial, reporting and governance issues of most concern to charities in a very helpful and practical way.
Interesting and relevant topics addressed by some excellent speakers. I have come away both challenged and enthused to carry on my voluntary involvement in the sector. Thank you.
Interesting, informative and engaging. The sessions are the right length, the speakers are first class, and the chairs managed the sessions and questions beautifully. ICAEW should be very proud of such a great event.
