I’ve now been making this podcast for just over year, and now that there are nearly 50 episodes, I wanted to reflect on five episodes that I think are especially relevant to the challenges fundraisers are facing as we start another difficult year. To help me reflect, and pull out the juiciest insights from these conversations, I’m joined by Ben Swart, my long-standing associate at Bright Spot. Our discussion includes ideas for fundraisers around STORY-TELLING; TENACITY; LEADERSHIP DURING LOCKDOWNS; COLLABORATING WITH OTHER CHARITIES; MAJOR GIFTS MOMENTUM; INCREASED CONFIDENCE WHEN TALKING TO SUPPORTERS, and plenty more… Thank you SO much to everyone who has supported this show in our first year! Thank you for listening, for sharing on social media or with colleagues, or for leaving a review wherever you get your podcasts. I’m incredibly grateful for your help in spreading the word so that the ideas reach more charities during these troubled times. If you’d like to get in touch, or share this episode, we’re both on Linked In and on twitter, Ben is @benswart and I am @woods_rob. You can find lots more free resources, as well as details of our training courses, on my website, www.brightspotfundraising.co.uk.
