The charity sector is poised for significant change alongside the new Labour government - but how so? We can anticipate a renewed focus on social welfare, community support, and tackling inequality, which may bring increased funding opportunities for charities working in these areas. However, with potential shifts in policy, charities will need to ensure these align with new priorities while advocating for the causes that matter most to their communities. It's certainly an exciting time, but also one that requires strategic adaptation from the sector to make the most of the evolving landscape. Thoughts?👇

📣 Following a successful campaign by A Scotland That Cares, a coalition campaign backed by over 70 organisations including leading Scottish charities, think tanks and trade unions, the Scottish Government has proposed a new, dedicated National Outcome on care. Once finalised it will make Scotland one of the first countries in the world to make such an explicit and comprehensive commitment to driving and transparently measuring progress on how care and, crucially, those who look after someone, are valued. 🗳️ First introduced in 2007, the Scottish Government’s National Performance Framework (NPF) includes eleven National Outcomes, the goals which it says describe ‘the kind of Scotland’ it wishes to create. 🌟The draft new National Outcomes recommended by Scottish Ministers have today been lodged at the Scottish Parliament for scrutiny by MSPs before being finalised, and they include a new National Outcome on Care, which states ‘We are cared for as we need throughout our lives and value all those providing care’. As well as covering care at all stages of a person’s life, the new National Outcome will cover everyone with caring responsibilities in Scotland; from unpaid carers looking after friends and family, including young carers, to parents looking after children and paid social care and childcare workers. 🌟 #CareForCarers #ScottishGovernment #SupportCarers #ScotlandCares

This is such an important issue and needs to be viewed widely and discussed extensively. Clearly, some charity boards are populated with people for whom there need be no consideration about paying them...in fact, it is the volunteering act of contributing their time and expertise which defines the point of having them engage with the organisation in the first place. But the problem is that too many charity boards are only comprised of such people, meaning that key voices are not at the table...and making sure that they are there going forward is a critical topic which every board needs to review and then make conscious decisions and implement concrete plans.

3 weeks ago, I posted that Arts & Homelessness International had gained permission from the Charity Commission to pay our trustees with lived experience who are not on a salary. I didn't realise how unusual this was - but judging by the 25,000 views we've had across social media platforms and all the positive comments, it has struck a chord. We're really pleased that many people share our view that it is vital not only to re-distribute power and decision-making with the widest communities possible, but those communities who are giving their time and expertise need to be paid. There were quite a few calls for us to share the process we went through with the Charity Commission so we have put together a guideline of '10 Key Learnings' with the help of Tom Henderson who is a lawyer and on our board - you'll find a link at the bottom of this post. So many of the social welfare systems in place ultimately keep people in poverty, and we are not going to contribute to that. Pay is power. Financial inclusion is power. Co-creation is the future but only if that includes fair pay. Please share this guideline if you find it useful. https://lnkd.in/eieAVYnS

The Household Support Fund has been a lifeline for the people we support. Hundreds reach out to us every week needing immediate help with food, household bills and essential items; families with a broken fridge-freezer that can no longer store essential medication, or people escaping domestic abuse who need the basics for a new home. Scrapping this fund will only intensify pressure on local authorities and overwhelmed charities already helping with essentials like food, clothing, and utilities. The government must commit to a long-term funding strategy for local crisis support across the UK. Read the report: https://lnkd.in/eiZfsXUn Read more: https://lnkd.in/gRUkbB7C

Community service organisations, it's time to check your eligibility for income tax exemption! 🏢🌟 Important Steps: Lodge Your NFP Self-Review Return: Non-charitable NFPs with an active ABN need to lodge an annual return. For the 2023–24 income year, lodge between 1 July and 31 October 2024. Self-Assess Your Main Purpose: Your organisation's main purpose must be a community service purpose. Altruistic purposes that benefit the wellbeing of others qualify. Political or lobbying purposes do not qualify. Example of Eligibility: Eligible: The Hill Community Club, which supports community activities and provides networking opportunities, qualifies as its main purpose is to improve community welfare. Ineligible: Young Leaders Association, focusing on professional development and leadership for its members, does not qualify as its main purpose is not community service. Ensure your organisation meets the criteria before lodging your return.
