Why this is worth your lunch break
Build with AI. Watch it happen live (and learn how you can get started).
Webinar Date and Time: June 10, 2026 12.30pm to 1.30pm UK time
In under an hour, we will build a real charity tool in front of you. No code. No jargon. Just curiosity and the right tools.
Free. One hour. Bring your questions.
Free. One hour. Bring your questions.
Why this is worth your lunch break
Three things hold charities back. AI changes all three.
Most good ideas die for the same reasons. They cost too much, take too long, or sit in a queue waiting for someone with the skills. We’ll show you how building with AI can help your ideas flourish.
The cost gap.
A landing page from an agency runs £3,000 to £10,000. A bespoke tool can hit £20,000 to £60,000. Building it yourself with AI costs the price of a subscription and upskilling yourself.
The time gap.
What used to take weeks or months can now take hours or days. You will watch this happen, start to finish, in one sitting.
The control gap.
No tech queue. No agency back and forth. No waiting on a quote. You describe what you want, and you stay in charge.
Why this is worth your lunch break
We will build something live. One of you will get to choose what.
After you register, we will email you with a question. What is the one digital thing you have always wanted to build for your charity but haven't, because of cost, time, or tech? A landing page. A supporter tool. A simple automation. Anything real.

The webinar is the taster. Build Something Good is the main course.
If you leave wanting to build your own thing, we’re running a four-week sprint that takes you from never having tried this to a finished, working tool for your charity. With a money-back guarantee. We talk more about it on the day.
