Delighted to be at David Hume Institute public event with Tim Jackson on "The Care Economy". Lots of interesting issues here relevant to a wide range of charities. #EICClive

Some pretty odd comments from Tim Jackson about "the moon as carer". Yes, the moon regulates the tides and much else that is important to human activity, but it's a bit of a stretch to argue that the moon is thereby a carer. Is an apple a carer if I can eat it? #EICClive


This is a slightly odd format, I feel, David Hume Institute with Tim Jackson just being interviewed with no obvious structure. Much better, I suggest, to invite him to give a talk with his own slides and structure (with audience Q&A at end). #EICCLive




Two very different charity meetings today of orgs where I am a member: Scottish @Grantmakers this morning and CharityLaw now. Both online, but I was encouraged that CLA gave the option of meeting in person: there was a real buzz!

Hooray! Ben Harrison (Head of Charity Law at Department for Culture, Media and Sport) confirms they are finally planning to update the E&W charity accounting regs for new Charities #SORP 2026. It is scandalous that the E&W regulations were never updated for last SORP. CharityLaw

Good to have a presentation at CharityLaw by Saffa Mir of Pennington Manches Cooper and trustee of Muslim Charities Forum (MCF) specifically on faith charities. Quite a lot of charity people seem uncomfortable about faith-based charities so glad the CLA is giving a clear focus.
