The issue of how subcontractors are used in fundraising has once again hit the headlines and for all the wrong reasons.    The team at Sayer Vincent is well-placed to provide assurance on how the risks around working with subcontractors can be successfully managed and here, our Senior Risk and Assurance Manager Arlene Clapham examines the subject in more detail ➡ https://lnkd.in/e8ma-m_3   #fundraising #charityfinance #fundraisingethics

With the Fundraising Regulator having again criticised the how two charities have used subcontractors in their fundraising efforts, it feels timely to share my most recent blog article that examines this very topic.    It’s worth remembering that the use of subcontractors in fundraising isn’t inherently wrong or bad, but it does need to be approached with due consideration for how the potential risks associated with it are managed – that’s where the team at Sayer Vincent can help.    #fundraising #charityfinance #fundraisingethics

Here’s the ultimate test for your RAP journey: Do your relationships with First Nations partners reflect your values? Strong, collaborative partnerships with First Nations businesses, charities, or community-controlled organisations show that you’re not just ticking boxes—you’re walking the talk. These partnerships demonstrate integrity. They say, “What we promise, we deliver.” They show that your organisation turns up, listens, and makes an impact where it matters most. Building trust and fostering respect is key. If your relationships with First Nations partners are thriving, it’s a sign you’re on the right path to meaningful reconciliation.
