Well would need to read it obvs. But all the info we have from other sources shows individual giving flat, maybe down a bit last 12 months but nothing approaching this level

[Mark Phillips @Markyphillips]

@tobinaldrich I know but I’m always a bit nervous about dismissing anything without reading the background. Average gift is claimed to have gone down. We know that we are over-reliant on a small number of donors for the majority of sector’s income so maybe they have missed this group?

[Tobin Aldrich @tobinaldrich]

@Markyphillips This seems…unlikely.

As Ramadan comes to an end, thanks to Chloe Roberts & Molly Simpson at @GivingtoGeorges for sharing how they set about organising the Tooting Interfaith Iftar, welcoming guests from all faiths across the borough & raising awareness of the charity’s work. https://t.co/5Z5PKSSgCM

Another chance to be inspired by fundraisers of the past...

Raffles, gallery events & benefit concerts are common ways to raise money today. But when Thomas Coram fundraised for the Foundling Hospital in Georgian London, he employed these methods too!
