Description
Lucinda and Emily are joined by Leann Cross, director of the childcare support charity Home-Start Greenwich, to explore how inflationary pressures are impacting low-earning charity employees.Leann discusses multi-year term public funding cycles, which are designed to improve long-term organisational sustainability but have negatively affected Home-Start’s ability to respond to rising costs. She describes the often blurred line between Home-Start’s employees and service users and provides insight into effective forms of supplementary support to staff.Also in the episode, news editor Andy Ricketts provides his take on an undercover investigation exposing potentially unethical practices carried out by door-to-door charity fundraisers in Wales.Do you have stories of people whose lives have been transformed for the better thanks to your charity?
