In our February You’re MarketingKind gathering we look forward to discussing how we can give a little to gain a lot with Ed Mayo, CEO of Pilotlight, former Secretary General of Co-operatives UK and former director of the New Economics Foundation. In the session we’ll explore the benefits of skills-based volunteering for individuals, businesses and society.

During his time at the New Economics Foundation Ed was the strategist for the Jubilee 2000 campaign, which gained 24 million signatures worldwide and ultimately led to the cancellation of more than $100 billion of debt owed by 35 of the poorest countries.

Ed is now looking at how we can help everyone to better understand why they should use their expertise to volunteer, why employers should encourage it and the difference that it makes to businesses, industries and society.
