AI for Good: New Book Launched

📰 AI for Good – How UK Charities Can Work Smarter, Win Funding, and Save Time
We’re excited to announce the release of our new book, AI for Good, written by E2’s CEO Martin Buchanan.
Published in June 2025, this practical, honest, and hope-filled guide shows how small charities and community organisations can embrace AI tools to save time, reduce burnout, and focus more energy on the people and communities they serve.
Drawing on real-life examples from right here in Beaumont Leys, the book shares how E2 quietly introduced AI into everyday charity operations, from bid writing and youth work rotas to team support and communications.
“This isn’t about replacing people with tech. It’s about giving people more time to do what matters most,” says Martin.
💡 What You’ll Find in the Book
How to use tools like ChatGPT and Canva to write better funding bids
Ways to save hours on admin, staff comms, and social media
Real examples from E2’s journey, including youth-led projects and funding wins
Practical prompt templates, tool tips, and a nonprofit-friendly glossary
A roadmap for trustees and team leads to introduce AI confidently and ethically
Whether you’re running a food project, youth programme, community centre or support service, AI for Good is written with you in mind.
