IOF Lunchtime Bites Calendar '08

• Institute of Fundraising

The Institute of Fundraising (NI) Lunchtime Bites Calendar is a series of training events throughout the year covering a diverse range of fundraising methods and techniques for both professional and volunteer fundraisers.

Experts in their fields have been booked to provide concise, informative and relevant information in relation to fundraising in Northern Ireland.

Sessions take place over lunchtime and end in the early afternoon, just enough to satisfy the hunger - for food and titbits of fundraising tips.

This programme has been developed by the Institute of Fundraising Northern Ireland Committee in Association with the Northern Ireland Council for Voluntary Action.

IOF and NICVA Members can attend for £5 per person and non-members at £7.50 to cover expenses and the sandwich lunch.

Sessions begin at 1.30pm with a sandwich lunch and will generally end before 3.30pm with the exception of the Annual Training Convention in June and the full-day training seminar “An Introduction to Fundraising” in November.
