News and Insights

Viberts is delighted to announce its third charities conference, which will be held on Thursday 11 June 2026 at the Royal Yacht hotel.

Following feedback from last year’s conference, the theme for this year is the pitfalls of income generation and marketing with an overview of the sector.

John Mills, Jersey Charities Commissioner, and key sector leaders will offer insights on governance, and the evolving landscape in which charities operate. We hope the sessions will not only provide useful guidance but also spark conversations and connections that continue beyond the day.

If you support a charity, run one or work for one this is an unmissable event for you.
