🎉"results the like of which I've never seen in 2 decades reporting on housing" 📢 Great to read such positive feedback! Hannah Fearn's analysis of the ProxyAddress pilot in Inside Housing shows how it's making a tangible impact helping people escape homelessness. Link below!

This recent article reminds me of Tom Crewe's incredible piece in London Review of Books from 2016, The Strange Death of Municipal Britain: lrb.co.uk/the-paper/v38/…. A chilling article which has inspired me ever since. Public services don't lose money; they cost money. theguardian.com/environment/20…

Really enjoyed speaking with George Kafka about the ProxyAddress story so far. Kudos to George for his amazing write up and the decision to use Cafe Art participants' beautiful images. 👏 #TechForGood #socialimpact #homelessness

📊 New report from CSJ Foundation reveals a stark imbalance in UK's charity sector. 85% of all charitable income goes to just 4% of registered charities, leaving grassroots organizations struggling to survive. #Charity #UKCharities csjfoundation.org.uk/wp-content/upl…

💰 Despite their crucial role in addressing poverty, small charities in the UK are severely underfunded. Government funding has decreased by £413M since 2013, pushing many to operate at a loss. CSJ Foundation

🏡 Grassroots organizations know their communities best, but they often lack the resources to compete with larger charities for funding. 79% of UK adults agree that small, local charities are often overlooked and under-resourced csjfoundation.org.uk/wp-content/upl…

🚨 The COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the importance of small charities, yet their financial struggles have only worsened. Post-pandemic, small charities saw a £4.6B decline in funding, while larger charities experienced a £4.5B increase.

Reports like this show the need for a rebalancing of funding, with specific allocations for local grassroots charities. We need policies that recognise and support small charities and provide for maximum impact.
