Marion Pirrie, Parkinson’s UK 

“I came along to my first CIOF Scottish Fundraising Conference last year and would encourage anyone to go. I did one day and took so much away both for my own self development and learnings for my team. A great variety of speakers and a brilliant chance to network with others in the third sector. I came away feeling proud to be a fundraiser. Planning to go this year on both days and look forward to seeing new and old faces there.”   

Katriona Harding, 

Seescape

“I always find the annual CIOF Scotland Conference incredibly useful. I've attended a number of events over the years and as well as excellent networking opportunities, there is always a wealth or good choices for the sessions and I always leave feeling inspired and better informed about my  job.”
