Unique opportunity to lead @Shelter campaigns and the large, expert policy, public affairs & organising teams that fuel them. Vacant due to internal promotion, this kind of role does not come around often.

Ace job alert! Assistant Director Communications & Content to join our fab ⁦@Shelter⁩ team for 12-month maternity cover. This is a senior role in a household name charity - the type of thing that doesn’t come up every day. Check out/please share ⬇️ https://t.co/yIbQTma9Dr

@pollyn1 I love the abolute honesty of that statement

Artificial intelligence has been making waves across various industries, revolutionising the way organisations operate. Yet, in the realm of charities, the adoption of AI seems to be lagging behind. https://t.co/nU7B7gEiUS

Catch me on @BBCWomansHour this morning talking about a new major study from @Shelter that shines a light on the lives of the many thousands of children and families who will wake up homeless this Christmas. Programme airs 10-10.45 @BBCRadio4

Please watch & share this 👇🏻video of our @Shelter mural in Shoreditch. If the government doesn’t tackle the housing emergency at the heart of the #CostOfLivingCrisis we are going to see a surge in homelessness

[Polly Neate @pollyn1]

We @Shelter are braced for a wave of homelessness born from cuts across welfare and services.
At this point it’s hard to imagine where public spending cuts can be made without unthinkable hardship. This winter is very frightening indeed - and that’s before any “finding savings”

[Polly Neate @pollyn1]

Yes, everyone is affected by the economic disaster the country is in. But we won’t all be made homeless as a result. For those who will, please join our @Shelter emergency campaign ⬇️

[Polly Neate @pollyn1]

We @Shelter are stepping up our campaign to get government to take responsibility for avoiding a surge in homelessness this winter. We’ve had enough of top tips, have you? Join us to ask government to help@people keep their homes.

The real growth we’re going to see after today is a growth in homelessness.

Our @Shelter statement.

[Polly Neate @pollyn1]

When governments are addicted to short-term fixes (and not even enough of those), and avoid desperately needed systemic change, crises hit people harder. Then charities have no choice but to shift into reactive mode too. And it can never, ever be enough https://t.co/zAdZQWeJVN

[Polly Neate @pollyn1]

Are you or someone you know facing a rent increase? We ⁦@Shelter⁩ have loads of advice and template letters online ⬇️ https://t.co/jmRZBCRh4D

[Polly Neate @pollyn1]

Renting is unaffordable for many people under 30. And the cost of living crisis hasn’t peaked yet, by a long way. A stark increase in homelessness is coming unless the government steps in. Next PM must see the housing emergency at the heart of this crisis https://t.co/EG2JAFyLhu

@ladylaxton Me too 🤔
