The Scottish Heads and Directors group is a senior network for heads of fundraising and directors across Scotland, offering peer support, strategic insight and leadership development for senior fundraising professionals.

Our group is a space for senior practitioners to share best practice in fundraising, provide a supportive network for its members, provide a platform to inform Chartered Institute of Fundraising Scotland policy positions and discuss topical issues.

Membership is open to all members of the Chartered Institute of Fundraising who are senior practising fundraisers whether they manage a team or are a sole fundraiser. Meetings are usually on the first Tuesday of March, May, September and November.
