We are membership organisation, and over 1,350 charities are members of CFG. Our members collectively manage over £21.1billion, which represents almost a third of the charity sector's income. CFG’s programme of events and training enables finance professionals in the charity sector to develop essential leadership and financial management skills, develop their understanding of topical financial issues, and network and share knowledge with peers. A culture of sharing and contributing to the wider sector, beyond the individual charities in membership, is at the heart of CFG's activities. Charity Finance Group is also active on a number of key policy areas. We work to engage with and influence policy makers and officials, ensuring that the issues facing the charity sector are understood and accounted for by government. We work together with other organisations, regulators and charities to input charity expertise to the regulatory process, and to develop best practice in charity management.
