Charity Finance Group’s biggest conference in the north returns to Manchester this June. With Brexit a feature of uncertainty in the landscape, it’s crucial for financial managers in charities and non-profits to possess the latest knowledge to maintain a robust role, and keep growing and developing strategies at a challenging time for the sector.
