I couldn't agree more with the sentiment expressed in this post. During my tenure as CEO at Wessex Community Action, I witnessed firsthand the transformative power of collaboration among charities. At Wessex Community Action, bringing charities together was a fundamental aspect of our mission. We often talk about the significant issues that affect the majority of people—health, education, poverty, and the environment. These are the core areas that many charities focus on, and the impact is exponentially greater when we unite our efforts. By working together, we harness a common voice, amplify our strength in numbers, and leverage our collective influence to drive meaningful change. Collaboration among charities isn’t just beneficial; it’s essential. A collective voice is far more powerful and persuasive than any single entity going it alone. When charities join forces, we share resources, knowledge, and strategies, which leads to more innovative solutions and a greater overall impact. During my time at Wessex Community Action, I saw numerous examples of how working together made a difference. From joint tendering initiatives to collaborative community programs, the results were always more impactful than isolated efforts. We are undoubtedly stronger together, and our united front can bring about the systemic changes needed to address the complex challenges we face today. I encourage all charities to seek out partnerships and collaborations. Together, we can achieve so much more than we can alone. #StrongerTogether #CharityCollaboration #CollectiveImpact

We all get stuck sometimes! When this happens, it pays to change our approach. To help you get ideas myself and Ben share three stories of charities who solved very difficult problems by doing things differently. In our new podcast episode, we focus on 'How to get the result you really want'. We share stories from three charities - one was struggling to recruit volunteers… and took a risk which transformed their results. And when the citizens of a town were angry that a nazi march was due to take place through their streets, they responded creatively and had the last laugh. And to improve her odds of winning a competitive partnership with a restaurant, one shrewd fundraiser called Kelly decided to do things differently… and won a valuable partnership for her charity... for life! We share three steps to help you be creative and brave in solving your own challenges. Listen here 🎧 👉 https://bit.ly/3Y9C0hb (or on your favourite podcast platform!)

This week on The Brothers on Books Podcast, we read and discussed Die with Zero by Bill Perkins. We often think to optimize our money, but are we optimizing our experiences (with the thought of mortality/health as a constraint)? People spend less as they get older, not more! What has you waiting to give inheritance to loved ones or charities, at a time where more utility could be obtained NOW? See the link below in the comments for the discussion.
