A new e-mail discussion list for charity IT directors has been launched.
The Charities
Consortium I.T. Directors Forum has been established to exchange information and
experience on the best industry practice and to encourage best practice across the
sector. The forum is composed of the Heads of Information Systems/Information Technology
from the major UK charities.

Members can now exchange news and advice via an e-mail and Web-based discussion 
forum, hosted at Yahoo! Groups.

The forum’s aims include keeping in touch with the latest technology and sharing
experiences of it, evaluating suppliers and consultants and sharing experiences,
exchanging information about purchasing issues and optimising buying potential across
the charity sector.
