**Arts Fundraising & Philanthropy is launching an enquiry into the impact of the
cost of living crisis on arts, heritage and cultural organisations, and is inviting
fundraisers to take part.**

Throughout 2022 – 2024, [Arts Fundraising & Philanthropy](https://artsfundraising.org.uk/)
is running series of enquiries looking at challenging areas of arts, culture and
heritage fundraising, with a view to informing future policy and research.

Each enquiry is made up of eight fundraisers working in arts, culture and heritage
organisations across the UK and at different stages in their careers.  They work
with the wider Arts Fundraising & Philanthropy team to explore a topic of national
significance.

Arts Fundraising & Philanthropy’s last enquiry focused on the challenges of ethics
in fundraising and will be published in October, and it is now looking for fundraisers
to join its next cohort, with a focus on the cost of living crisis.

It wants explore how arts organisations, their audiences, donors and funders are
adapting and could adapt during this challenging time, specifically focusing on 
the impact on fundraising.

This is a paid opportunity and will result in a short publication outlining policy
ideas and suggestions for key funders, where all participants will be co-authors
and credited for their participation. The publication will be shared with stakeholders
including Arts Council England and may be used to inform discussion at Arts Fundraising&
Philanthropy events and training courses.
