The Gathering 2026
Organised by SCVO, the Gathering is the largest free voluntary sector event in the UK. It's an opportunity for all the amazing people working in and with the voluntary sector to network, showcase what they do and learn from each other.
Hosted at the Edinburgh International Conference Centre (EICC) on 10th and 11th February 2026, delegates enjoyed a packed programme of workshops, seminars and activities, as well as our popular exhibition.
