We’re very excited that our very own Abi White will be speaking at the CASE Europe Annual Conference next Friday 19th November alongside Kurstin Finch Gnehm.

They will be talking about the incredibly successful appeal we created with the Royal Academy of Music earlier this year, which has raised enough to fund an additional 1,200 hours of counselling and pastoral care for students struggling with their mental health during the pandemic. The campaign achieved an average gift of over £200 and received donations from 12 High Net Worth Individual prospects, including people the Academy can now talk to about further gifts to support student mental health in the future.

To hear more from them and a host of other brilliant speakers, you can register at: https://www.case.org/conferences-training/case-europe-annual-conference-2021
