The [Institute of Fundraising](http://www.institute-ofndraising.org.uk) is the professional
body for UK fundraisers, championing best practice in fundraising. As the largest
individual representative body in the third sector, the Institute has an enviable
track record of delivering exceptional events. The latest addition to our growing
portfolio of high profile events will focus on highlighting best practice within
the fundraising world at our annual National Awards.

Fundraising is a rapidly developing and increasingly eclectic profession. Recognising
the achievement of some of its many fundraisers, whether professional or volunteer,
is a crucial exercise within a continually evolving charity environment.

The ceremony is one of the key nights in the voluntary sector calendar. The Awards
will take place alongside the Institute of Fundraising National Convention on Monday
9 July 2007 at the Hilton London Metropole. A captive audience of over 700 key fundraising
practitioners and suppliers are expected to attend the ceremony and accompanying
dinner.
