A network connecting social sector staff working on digital projects with each other to share best practice and learn from eachother

A gathering of the Digital Leads Network at Friends House in London, March 2024

We bring together people that have worked on CAST and Catalyst’s digital projects and programmes so they can continue to share their experiences, achievements and challenges - and learn from and support one another.

Our Digital Leads Network, which receives funding from Catalyst, connects social sector staff working on digital projects with each other, as well as with sector experts. Home to a growing community of around 100 digital leads, it provides participants with quarterly masterclasses, informal meetups - and a range of other exclusive opportunities, such as funding for award submissions and support to speak alongside CAST at sector events and conferences.

For our most recent masterclass (in February 2024), we were joined by Lizzie Curtis from Jamabuck Studio and Max Haining from 100DaysOfNoCode for a deep dive into no code technology: what it is, why you should look into it, how other social impact organisations have successfully used it - and how to get started right away!

We've made the full recording and slides available openly, along with a host of free resources - click here for all the no code masterclass information.

Membership of the network is currently by invitation only, but if you’d like to find out more or request an invitation based on programme participation, please contact David Scurr.
