Editor News

The charity sector has ‘some way to go’ to ensure it is embracing digital innovation, according to an analysis of the tech capabilities of 150 charities.

Analysis of submissions from charities to a benchmarking tool, created to accompany the sector’s first digital code of practice, found that three quarters (75%) have ‘very few digitally skilled people around’. The analysis also reveals that nearly two thirds (63%) of charities do not have a digital strategy.
