Head of Training and Consultancy over at NCVO. Minimalist - less, but better. Healthy interest in home furnishings.
Positive to hear, but a tricky one to get right in terms of regulatory reporting. Overall anything that drives visablity of impact should be somthing the charity sector welcomes - so look forward to seeing the details!

This is a sad (if not to have been expected) conclusion on the Cpt Tom Foundation. An exceptional case in some ways, but one with lessons for charities on the role of founders, accountability of leaders, oversight of connections with non-charities and conflict management to avoid blurred boundaries

The BBC’s decision to put these photos next to each other suggests to me the dog is responsible.

In all the excitement of BlueSky, am wondering if any other charity / comms people out there are struggling with idea of giving up an active and large X following?

It’s a real challenge to add another channel, especially when resources and teams are already stretched.

All thoughts welcome!
