Does anyone have any brain I might pick around possible corporate partners / funders for a charity project linked to better communications... can explain more if you're willing to share thoughts..

Help please! I'm looking for recommendations for amazing brand agencies who specifically work with charities, and who are probably on the smaller side/used to working with smaller organisations. Context: fundraising income under £1m and comms team of 2.5 people #CharityTwitter


Lots of a great advice here for anyone rising the ranks or with ambitions to -

Am going to exploit this (very temporary) spotlight: anyone want some mentoring from me? I have 1 gap available - I don’t charge - you just need to be a fundraiser who doesn’t get it free through work…and willing to put up with my slightly odd metaphors. References available!

Proud of the one and only @VanessaLongley who is officially the 4th most influential fundraiser in the country. Can't argue with that.

Some incredibly interesting insights here from Dan Fran into local grassroots organisations especially around governance, funding and risk. Well worth the read!

Hello friends - does anyone have a good example of a wellbeing policy they'd be willing to share with me? Preferably one that takes a feminist lens to understanding wellbeing? I'd be so grateful for any signposting! Thank you x


Interesting findings from the latest @SMKcampaigners sector survey. Does leadership of orgs feel more difficult in the changing political landscape, does it put people off wanting to step up in future? Or does it unlock more determination? Would love to hear reflections 👂🏻
