What is the Need?

The vision of CharityComms is that: Charity communications are integral to each charity’s work for a better world.

We aim to define the communications discipline within our sector thus becoming a reputable body with responsibility for setting standards.

Many other professions within the charity sector now have their own qualifications and professional development standards. We believe that these are needed for communicators in charities as well.

We believe that the hallmarks of a great charity communications team are:

  • Integration of communications disciplines
  • Demonstrating value and effectiveness
  • Transparent and accountable to key stakeholders
  • Innovative in their approach
  • Have high quality standards and processes
  • Sharing knowledge within the team and the organisation
  • Development of the team, individually and collectively
