Dates for your diary

As part of our Road Ahead series, we’ve created a calendar of key dates and events that you may be interested in marking, publicising, or taking part in.

Compiled by our influencing and engagement team, with support from NCVO associate Tom Burke, the calendar provides a starting point for your 2023 planning.

• Get involved: make plans to involve your organisation in sector-wide events and opportunities.
• Make plans: refer to the list when scheduling your own events or activities.
• Engage your team: share events with your organisation’s staff or volunteers.
• Stay relevant online: choose events to include in your social media plans.

Please note – the events listed on this calendar are not exhaustive. Dates of events are subject to change, and you should always confirm the event or activity with the organiser directly.
