OMG! Decadent Donuts’ Post

Here I am, starting my year off playing my role as a #groupie for ACEVO... Jane Ide OBE HonDUniv and I have joked that if ACEVO had a badge scheme (think Girl Guide sashes for those who know and have one of these somewhere in a storage box like me), I would have collected many! One of the best pieces of advice Philippa Gitlin gave me when I started at FARA was to join ACEVO. The support of collective wisdom, and the collaboration has been hugely valuable to me in my role and for FARA, as I have been able to draw this down and apply it to the work we are trying to do on a day-to-day basis. The waters may be tough to chart for many in the charity sector over the coming year. Being part of conversations and connecting with others over this time will help us all. Both on a personal level to help keep a steady head through sharing the challenges, and also on an organisational level to help share resources and thinking. I have, across my career, always tried to link up with others in similar roles or doing similar things, as I believe conversations and sharing are an important part of ongoing learning and growth (and also having people who you can laugh or cry with who understand!). Find your tribe (or tribes!) they are so important. #peersupport #charity #conversations #ongoinglearning
