Fundraising Magazine presents Elevate 2027 🚀

10 March 2027 London

A conference for fundraising professionals

We are delighted to invite you to ELEVATE, a conference designed to help charities like yours rise to today’s challenges with fresh ideas, bold strategies, and cutting-edge innovation. Our sector is facing unprecedented pressures; a funding crisis, recruitment and retention struggles, declining fundraising revenue, and increasing demand for services. At the same time, fundraising teams must keep pace with rapidly evolving technology, social media, and digital tools – all while addressing critical issues of donor trust, acquisition, and retention.

At ELEVATE, we’ll explore how charities of all shapes and sizes are navigating this landscape and driving success.

Programme to be announced.

ELEVATE 2026 is a carbon net positive event

When you register to attend this year’s ELEVATE you automatically save trees in the rainforest and contribute to the reforestation of our planet.

As event organisers, we at Civil Society Media are on our own journey to a sustainable future and we are continually working to monitor and reduce our environmental impact. We have calculated the carbon footprint of this event and implemented several measures to reduce it, including:

  • Offering a fully vegetarian menu throughout the day.
  • Selecting a venue with strong green credentials, including a commitment to food waste management, energy efficiency and recycling. Find out more here.
  • Going paperless—our event app will provide the programme, presentations, and delegate list, replacing traditional printed materials.
  • Using fully recyclable badges—please hand in your badge and lanyard at the end of the day so they can be recycled and reused.

We have offset the remaining emissions of this event by investing in a carbon offset scheme. By partnering with One Tribe, an ICROA-accredited organisation, we have ensured that only certified carbon offsets from internationally recognised registries are used to meet the highest standards of environmental integrity.

To date, ELEVATE's participation in this scheme has:

  • Protected 200 trees
  • Saved 1 acre of rainforest
  • Removed emissions of 12 cars
  • Offset 10 tonnes of CO2 equivalent
  • Achieved 5 UN Sustainability Goals
  • Funded the Safe Water Scheme in Rwanda which maintains water wells and essential infrastructure to provide clean water, reducing the need for inefficient fires to purify water.
