The Institute of Fundraising is offering bursaries for small charities to attend its IT Special Interest Group’s annual conference.

Open to registered charities with an annual income of less than £500,000, the limited offer will give one representative from each chosen charity free entry, including refreshments and lunch.

Travel and accommodation to the conference, taking place on 13 May 2010, are not included.

Keynote speakers at the event include Dr Robina Chatham (pictured) on getting the most out of the human dimension of IT and fundraising and a representative from seethedifference.org.

Applications should be made to [email protected] with the subject 'Bursary Application - Conference 2010', giving details of the organisation and a 250 word or less statement stating how the bursary would help the charity.

The Institute will consider applications up to the day of the conference, subject to availability.
