@cammyservantofc So very very sorry. Sending love.

A really important piece of research from @VSO and @NorthumbriaUni about the changing nature of volunteering in development. It makes the case for moving the ‘volunteering epicentre’ as part of decolonising our thinking and practice https://t.co/9g3nACmkWC

@C_Kneer Yep. Was told 'most women can tolerate the discomfort'. Was so painful I had to get them to stop, so they had to refer me for a GA. I felt like a wimp.

[Carol Hatchett @CarolHatchett]

@medobson Many many congratulations!

[Carol Hatchett @CarolHatchett]

@absoluteradio @SarahChampion So many options! Definitely Jack Bruce, McCartney, James Jamerson. Norman Watt-Roy? I have a soft spot for Mick Quinn of Supergrass.

@nonprofitssay "Just to build on what my colleague has said... "[then go on to make the same points, but more forcefully]

[Carol Hatchett @CarolHatchett]

@nonprofitssay Yes!!!

[Carol Hatchett @CarolHatchett]

@nonprofitssay And the round robin updates need to be drafted in advance and approved by your team leader, to ensure they're appropriately important and clear

[Carol Hatchett @CarolHatchett]

@RhonddaBryant Just shocking.

[Carol Hatchett @CarolHatchett]

@tim4mango Depends on the audience. I've rarely met anyone outside the sector who understands the need for adequate overheads.

[Carol Hatchett @CarolHatchett]

@bcurranjr @nonprofitssay Oh, and the mandatory 'wellness' training that exhorts you to take all of your annual leave (workload permitting)

[Aid Alliance @AidAlliance_]

In The Times today (page 22). @RishiSunak don’t let the world’s poorest people get buried by your small print. It isn’t right to fund one crisis response with money from another.

[Carol Hatchett @CarolHatchett]

@nonprofitssay Often a form that requires you to tick that you have completed your mandatory online training courses and agree to abide by umpteen corporate policies. So they're off the hook...

@Alan_Wilks @jonlinscott @SimonAshby1 @unpopular She did receive her royalties from DA in 2017. It wasn't their fault at all that she hadn't been paid before - she'd disappeared and her bank account had been closed. Still no news of her since 2018 tho. :-(

[Carol Hatchett @CarolHatchett]

@unpopular Did you find Barbara Shores? I last heard from her about a year ago, heading for Idaho.

[Carol Hatchett @CarolHatchett]

@SimonAshby1 @jonlinscott @unpopular Of course. I know how much she thought of you.

[Carol Hatchett @CarolHatchett]

@SimonAshby1 @jonlinscott @unpopular Hi Simon. I did find her in 2016 and she came to stay with me for a while. She returned to the US in 2017 and she stopped answering emails in 2018. So lost her again :-(

[Carol Hatchett @CarolHatchett]

@TVNaga01 My first one was so painful I had to ask them to stop, and I had to have it done later under general anaesthetic.

[Will Worley @willrworley]

I've put together a tracker of all the aid cuts we know about so far for @devex.

This will be regularly updated as the impact on vital development and humanitarian programs continues to emerge.

Have a read and let me know if anything has been missed:

UK to cut aid to UN family planning body by 85% or £130m. This would have helped to prevent around 250,000 maternal and child deaths, 14.6 million unintended pregnancies and 4.3 million unsafe abortions. UK Aid cuts will cost lives. @FCDOGovUK Don't do it. @newint @UNFPA

[Carol Hatchett @CarolHatchett]

@tim4mango @VSO_Intl I agree. It will be a shameful loss if the VSO grant is discontinued. Not yet decided I gather - hope the govt sees sense
