We had some great answers; Cool Runnings and Robin Hood being some of my favourites ones from my session for @ConsultantsForG this afternoon! #consultantsforgood

I have the privilege of speaking at the @ConsultantsForG today. We have had some great sessions this morning! Up next is Rachel Gnagniko #conference @NicolaGunn_

Rob Macmillan from Sheffield Hallam University opened the day with sector trends - How is it changing? What will charities need? And how can this need be met? #CforG2024

“Charities deliver £15.8bn of public services. But this is hugely undervalued and underpaid.

“We’re often treated as the cheapest alternative, or a last ditch safety net - commissioners know that we won’t walk away if it means people have nowhere to turn.” - @sarahvibert82

I love training people and enabling people to become super-villains – that's what my young daughter calls Supervision Training. 😁
