Charity IT Leaders Awards Dinner 2026

Smartdesc is proud to be a platinum sponsor of the Charity IT Leaders (CITL) Awards 2026.
The CITL Awards 2026 provide a platform for charities to showcase the innovation, resilience and impact of their digital, data and technology teams.
Last year's awards, held as part of CITL's 25th Anniversary celebrations, highlighted the remarkable achievements being delivered across the sector.
Winners included The Salvation Army for its Copilot rollout, the Refugee Council for its cloud transformation programme, Guide Dogs for cyber security excellence and ShareAction for digital skills and culture change.
These organisations demonstrated how technology can drive meaningful improvements for beneficiaries, staff, volunteers and supporters alike.
These awards are about more than winning a trophy. They offer an opportunity to share your story, celebrate achievements and inspire organisations across the charity sector.
