Lloyds Bank Foundation for England and Wales’ Post

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 week marks one year since taking over as CEO NORFOLK COMMUNITY LAW SERVICE LTD. In that time I feel so fortunate to have been able to learn so much about the charity sector, why access to justice matters, social welfare law, Norfolk's issues and so much more. I've had previously held views challenged and changed and been fortunate to meet an incredible number of people, doing some incredible things. Thankfully quite a few of those people work within our charity. Overall it's strengthened a view that we may be lucky to have the many public services provided to people in this country, but all too often it's the most vulnerable that have to miss out when cuts need to be made or the axe falls. It's helped to further enhance an opinion that, whilst there are always people looking to cheat the system, in reality the vast majority of people who seek help, do so because they need it. And on a personal note, it's made me feel even more lucky to have had the chances in life that are denied to many, but for which I probably take for granted. Plus, I realise now that the job you always felt was 'the one', doesn't have to be. There are other great challenges and opportunities out there, even if you have to change direction in your career to find them. Of course everything isn't plain sailing or perfect. I've also learned there are far too many meetings and some people in organisations are guilty of using them as a safety net from the real work that needs to be done. Sometimes great ideas get over-analysed and talked out of happening, when the best thing would be to just crack on and get on with it. Oh and as far as the charity sector is concerned, lack of funding security risks holding back great organisations and incredibly valuable services. On that basis, we've teamed up with Aviva, as part of their Community Fund, to try and raise vital funds to help those many people in Norfolk who are struggling with poverty. If you feel able to help, every £1 that gets donated will be match-funded and go directly to advise and represent those in vital need of that support.

#CharitySubtypes #AdvancingSocialWelfare #AdvancingPublicWelfare When the Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission register an organisation, its charity ‘subtypes’ are also publicly registered. These reflect the category of that organisation’s charitable purpose, which is what its activities will work towards achieving. Each subtype has a specific meaning under the law. The subtype for discussion today is Advancing social or public welfare. This is a purpose introduced by the Charities Act and includes purposes previously recognised in charity law (such as the relief of poverty and the relief of the needs of the aged). The following purposes (among many others) are included: ✔️ Relieving the poverty, distress or disadvantage of individuals or families, eg: - Accommodation services for people experiencing homelessness - International aid programs - Services for refugees - Soup kitchens - Employment & training services for the unemployed ✔️ Caring for, supporting & protecting children and young individuals, eg: - Child care services - Services for disadvantaged youth or 'at-risk' youth ✔️ Caring for and supporting the aged, eg: - Residential aged care facilities - Residential and non-residential care and assistance. - Alzheimer's associations, arthritis services, respite services - Community services for the elderly ✔️ Caring for and supporting individuals with disabilities, eg: - Residential and non-residential care - Braille libraries - Disability employment services - Guide dog associations - Support groups for people living with particular disabilities ✔️ Assisting in rebuilding, repairing or securing NFP community buildings and assets after a cyclone, bushfire or other disaster. ------- ℹ️ Accountants, Lawyers & Advisors ℹ️ Do your clients enquire about Charities/NFPs?
