Fundraisers in East Anglia have set up their own online discussion forum using the
free Yahoo! Groups service.

The group is for those in “Norfolk, Suffolk, Cambridgeshire, or even Essex [sic]”,
and is designed to help members “stay up to date on current fundraising trends and
initiatives, as well as other issues that are pertinent to nonprofits, charities,
and NGOs (non-governmental organisations)”.

There’s no charge to use the service and you don’t have to be a member of the Institute
of Fundraising to register for it. Its founders say that “The IoF (Institute of 
Fundraising) and NVS (Norwich Voluntary Services) are supportive of our efforts.”
The group’s founders, many of whom are based in Norwich, are “planning regular events
in Norwich”.

The forum’s posts are already integrated within UK Fundraising where I’ve added 
the RSS feed to our new aggregator:

www.fundraising.co.uk/aggregator

where we present content from a wide range of fundraising-related sources.
