Looking for a Similar Charity to Visit to see how they use CiviCRM

[Garyp]

We have had CiviCRM for about a year now. Our office staff are facing some challenges over the day to day use of CiviCRM and at a recent staff appraisal meeting our Operations Manager requested that she would like to visit a suitable similar charity to us who use CiviCRM to see how they use it and the challenges they face.

We are a small national UK children s charity who support children with upper limb deficiencies. We run a membership subscription scheme and hold an activity week each year as well as an annual conference. We have approx 1000 family membership. We are based in Devon but Bristol or London is fairly easy for us to get to.

If there are any charities who would be willing to allow one of our staff to come and visit their offices and see how CiviCRM is used, we are especially interested in the using CiviCRM for GiftAid and Direct Debit then please can they contact us.

You could contact Circle Interactive? They host, support and customize CiviCRM and are Bristol based. They can probably bring you into contact with a local charity.
