Innovation Morning

27 May, 2025 @ 10:00 am - 12:30 pm
Free

Join us at our Third Sector Innovation Morning on Tuesday 27 May 10am at St John’s & King’s Park Church, to learn practical ways you can embrace AI tools safely, securely, and ethically.

Register now on Eventbrite!

AI is here to stay and has the potential to be a valuable tool to support and enhance the work of third sector organisations and save valuable resources. 

We’ll be joined by AI expert Dr Louise Drumm, Associate Professor in Digital Education at Edinburgh Napier University, to give practical advice and help us understand good practice. AI is a current and contentious issue, and we will cover the big topics such as: 

  • Data Protection factors to consider when using AI.
  • Do I need an AI policy and why?
  • Importance of AI literacy in your Board.
  • The ethical considerations in using AI.
  • The environmental impact of AI usage.

We’ll also hear from two local funders, Tyne & Esk Community Led Local Development Fund (closing June 2nd) and Business Gateway, to find out what funding & support is available to assist innovation efforts in the third sector.
