About this Event

This session offers a simple, practical introduction to Artificial Intelligence (AI) and how it can support your organisation — from funding applications and governance tasks to communications and long-term sustainability.

We’ll also explore the key risks, ethical considerations and safe-use practices every VCSE organisation should know. Perfect for beginners and anyone curious about how AI can help save time and strengthen community impact.

This session is ideal for anyone with limited or no experience using AI. It’s suitable for staff, volunteers, trustees or anyone interested in learning how AI could support and strengthen their organisation.

· Understand the core principles of AI and how it can be used within voluntary and community organisations.

· Identify practical ways AI can support funding, governance, communications and sustainability.

· Recognise the key risks and limitations of AI, including data protection, accuracy and bias.

· Explain the ethical considerations involved in using AI responsibly in a VCSE context.
