Hello to everyone who has followed me over the last few days! I'm Hannah, and I've spent my career working in the nonprofit sector. I initially trained in zoology and worked in wildlife conservation charities - then almost 3 years ago, I made the move into data 📊 (1/5)

Why did Neath Port Talbot County Borough Council do a Data Maturity Assessment?
- For a structured understanding of the situation across 3,000 staff
- To make informed improvement plans
- Because they saw that The Scottish Government was using the assessment tool ☺️

Earlier this month, the UK government published results of its Cyber security breaches survey 2025.
It found a shocking 4 in 10 businesses and 3 in 10 charities experienced a cyber security breach or attack in the last year.
Are charities doing enough to guard against the risks?

There have never been more female CEOs in the Fortune 500.
The 2020 list includes 37 female CEOs, including the heads of Gap, UPS and General Motors. It still only represents 7.5% of the total. But it’s a symbol of lessening discrimination. New leadership styles. Better business.

What do nonprofit data jobs pay?
For the last few years we've been exploring the data from data job adverts. How is the job market changing? Are salaries going up or not? And how does pay really compare to the private sector?

A really interesting piece of work from @dataforaction.bsky.social in Sheffield: political boundaries - which are used to make decisions that can significantly affect quality of life for local people - do not align with neighbourhoods identified by the communities that live there
Neighbourhoods and 'middle layer super output areas' (MSOAs)
Some thoughts, overlaying and comparisons from Data for Action and Citizen Network's work in Sheffield.

Hands up who’s heard a Chiffchaff? ✋ The @birdtrack.bsky.social reporting rate is on the up. 🐦 This yellow-olive coloured warbler has a typical lifespan of around 2 years old, but the maximum age recorded from ringing is 10 years, 10 months and 27 days! 😮
