AI Marketing Workshop for UK Charity Teams
Turn AI into a clear playbook for supporter income, campaign planning and faster content. Live exercises keep prompts, journeys and copy honest to your charity context.
The Charity Digital Skills Report 2024 found that 68% of UK charity leaders say AI training is a priority, yet only 14% of small UK organisations currently use AI (UK Government 2024). Hartz AI bridges that gap with a practical, half-day workshop that gives charity marketing teams a tested AI playbook they can use the next day.
This half-day workshop gives UK charity marketing and fundraising teams a practical AI playbook for campaigns, donor engagement and content creation. Teams of 10-20 leave with tested prompts, first-draft assets and agreed guardrails. From £2,450 per session, delivered on-site or online.
What Does the AI Marketing Charity Playbook Cover?
AI for charity marketing does not need a big budget or a data science team. This half-day session sits within the Hartz AI Academy and is one of the fastest routes for charity marketing teams to go from curiosity to a confident working rhythm with AI. It covers AI marketing for nonprofits of all sizes, from local community groups to national campaigning organisations.
We move quickly from a grounding in generative AI to real prompts, personas and journeys drawn from your brief. Everyone leaves with first drafts, agreed guardrails and a shared way to brief AI tools. This workshop is also ideal for anyone exploring AI training for UK businesses who wants a charity-specific session.
Overview of the Half-Day Format
The session runs for around three and a half hours, including breaks. Each block mixes short demos, prompt walkthroughs and peer review. Content is tailored to your campaigns, policies and tone of voice.
