Movers & Shakers

Every year we celebrate talented fundraisers whose results are “above and beyond”, moving the dial for their organisation and sometimes even the profession.
2026 Movers & Shakers
ABOVE & BEYOND
“Fundraising is a team sport. The more senior you become, the broader the team gets. This means the key to success is much less about what you know or how smart you are, but how you and those around you can best work together. Finding great people to work with, understanding how to work most effectively with them, and caring for them and the outcomes you create together is what matters most.”
2024 Mover & Shaker, Tom Duggan
