DigiShift 98: The Big End-of-Year Digital Debrief

DigiShift 98: The Big End-of-Year Digital Debrief brings the voluntary sector together to reflect on the digital experiences of 2026 and explore priorities for 2027. Through a collaborative "Loved, Loathed, Longed For" retrospective, participants will share what's worked well, what has frustrated or challenged them, and what they hope to see more of in the year ahead.

What we'll explore,

• What digital practices, tools, and approaches are worth taking into 2027
• What barriers, frustrations, or habits should be left behind in 2026
• Key lessons learned from a year of change and adaptation
• Emerging opportunities we want to embrace in the year ahead
• Collective priorities for building a stronger, more confident digital sector

As 2026 comes to a close, it's time for The Big End-of-Year Digital Debrief.

The past year has brought new technologies, shifting priorities, unexpected challenges, and valuable learning opportunities across the voluntary sector. Some digital developments have made a real difference to our organisations and communities. Others have created headaches, barriers, or difficult lessons.

Join us and our special guests (to be announced) for an interactive end-of-year retrospective where we'll reflect on the digital highs and lows of 2026 and look ahead to what 2027 might bring.

Using a collaborative "Liked, Loved, Loathed, Longed For" format, we'll explore:

• Liked: the ideas, experiments, and developments that showed promise and potential
• Loved: the digital tools, approaches, and successes that made the biggest positive impact
• Loathed: the frustrations, challenges, barriers, and trends we'd be happy to leave behind
• Longed For: the opportunities, support, innovations, and changes we'd like to see in 2027

Together, we'll identify common experiences, uncover emerging priorities, and build a shared picture of what the voluntary sector needs to thrive in an increasingly digital world.

Whether you're celebrating achievements, reflecting on setbacks, or looking ahead to new possibilities, this session offers a chance to learn from peers, share your experiences, and help shape the voluntary sector's digital conversation for 2027.

What did we like? What did we love? What did we loathe? And what are we longing for next?

Join us to find out.
