What we cover

1
Where AI actually is right now
A clear, non-technical picture of what generative AI can and can't do today, cutting through the headlines.
2
What this means for charities specifically
Real examples of how organisations like yours are using AI, and where the genuine risk and opportunity sit.
3
The governance questions to ask
What good oversight looks like: data, safeguarding, staff use, and what a board should expect leadership to have in place.
4
Budget and resourcing
A realistic view of what training, tools and policy work actually cost, so decisions can be made with confidence.
5
Questions and discussion
Open floor for trustees ro raise their own concerns and get direct answers.
Your board knows AI is on the agenda. Nobody's given them a clear enough picture to make decisions.
-
Trustees are hearing conflicting things about AI risks and opportunity
-
Budget requests for AI training or tools arrive without enough context to assess them
-
Nobody on the board has a technical background to sense-check what's being proposed
-
Governance and risk converations keep getting deferred for lack of confidence
-
Staff are asking for direction the board doesn't yet feel equipped to give
This session gives trustees and senior leadership exactly what they need to approve budget, set direction and ask the right questions, without needing to become AI experts themselves.
