Embrace Finance Academy
Small Charity Finance Leadership Programme
Winter Term 2026 Coming Soon
Congratulations on taking your next step towards financial confidence. Whether you're new to financial management or looking to strengthen your skills, all sessions are delivered in plain English, go back to first principles and have been designed to provide you with the knowledge you need to get on top of and stay on top of the numbers.
These succinct, short sessions are perfect for busy folks in small charities with an annual income up to £500k pa. However, folks from larger charities may also find them a useful refresher. And whatever your role, if you want to get your head round how the day to day finances fit together in a small charity, you are welcome.
It is our experience that it is financial confidence which unlocks longer term financial resilience. And it is financial resilience which unlocks long term social change. Yet many folks tell us that they find finance boring, baffling and anxiety provoking. We have baked these very common concerns into the design and the delivery of the session. We are all qualified, experienced small charity finance professionals. From the sector. For the sector.
Don't let one spreadsheet stop you from changing the world. Join us and we can explore the wonderful world of charity finance together. We look forward to working with you.
