CharitEpulse: Frustrations all round – clunky grant application processes and ‘dog-whistle’ reporting
This week our chatters James Saunders, Charles Mesquita, and Catherine Rustomji focus their discussion on a few controversial matters that have recently hit headlines:
- The challenges faced by grant-making charities and the lessons learned.
- The release of the Charity Investment Governance Principles – examining their purpose and necessity.
- The Charity Commission letter to the General Synod of the Church of England addressing safeguarding concerns.
In addition, charity CEO salaries were recently covered in the press, without balance or context, and the Charity Commission’s response was without punch or substance. This subject should be addressed with much more transparency and consideration than was demonstrated.
