Want to know what our past delegates thought of our From Here to Diversity conference? Take a look below: “Informative, punchy, and engaging, this conference day had a bit of everything to provoke thought, as well as inspire conversation and genuine action post-event.”– Holly Prest, Global Grooves “The event was peppered with little gems of wisdom and inspiration – on topics from neurodiversity to the concept of “virtue signalling” to having the courage of your convictions.” – Phil Gillam, Age UK Shropshire Telford & Wrekin This is an important conference for leadership teams, trustees and HR staff.

I’ve just returned to work after paternity leave and I don't feel overwhelmed, here's why: Firstly, DSC’s new paternity policy offers 6 weeks full pay to fathers or non-birthing partners which meant so much to me being able to bond with my daughter and help my partner fully recover. Secondly, I nominated various members of the DSC team who knew how to act in absence because of DSC’s policies. Every month, staff get briefed on a particular policy so that they are not forgotten. So many organisations don’t have an acting in absence policy and it’s a great way to develop skills for the team and it makes a massive difference to wellbeing and productivity at work. It just shows how important strong policies and procedures are for running an effective organisation! DSC is really hot on policies and procedures, so much so that we’ve developed a template for charities to use, here’s the link: https://lnkd.in/ec8X-hwf"

It was so much fun copyediting Charity Finance Group chief executive Caron Bradshaw OBE's book It’s a Nightmare with the Numbers – the 'no-fibbing guide to charity finance'. And I was thrilled to get this feedback from Caron on the editing process via the publisher, the Directory of Social Change 'Many thanks for all your help and if you can tell Hazel she is marvellous please. Loved some of her amendments, grateful for others (particularly the spots where I had said something stupid) and appreciated the amendments to my use of English!' It’s a Nightmare with the Numbers is out in September and is a fabulous, accessible guide for anyone wanting to better understand charity finance. — Wordstitch | Editorial services that empower non-profits, charities, businesses and authors to confidently share their expertise and impact ☎ DM me or follow the link in my profile to start a conversation about how I can help to move your project forward 📩 Go to my profile to sign up to The Edit Better Letter for tips, tools and other content to help you maximise what you get out of your editing – both for your business growth and for the spark that drives you

Did you know, one in seven people are considered neurodivergent? As we all create more inclusive and supportive workplaces, understanding and embracing neurodiversity is crucial. At our From Here to Diversity conference, we'll be joined by Janine Booth, Founder of Red in the Spectrum, who will be running a session on how we can best support staff who are neurodivergent.

It is not unusual at Directory of Social Change for staff members to spontaneously compliment their managers on things they think they are doing well and frequently to email me sharing this positive feedback. This is such a good habit to get in to. It reinforces ‘good’ management because being told when you’ve done something well by a staff member makes you want to do it more. And to do it to others too. It shows the manager that staff are able to give positive as well as negative feedback. And it cheers everyone up. Look out for what your managers are doing well and tell them so. The best way to get the treatment you want is to reinforce it when you get the treatment you want.
