Third Sector Podcast

Peter Wanless on leading the NSPCC

Lucinda and Andy hear from the head of the children’s charity on leadership, government engagement and sticking to a purpose.

They discuss the differences between his leadership roles in the Civil Service and voluntary sector and explore some of the challenges he is tackling now at the NSPCC, including falling volunteer numbers.

Peter also explains his use of social media as a charity boss and his reticence to back causes that are not directly connected to preventing cruelty to children.

Later in the episode, Justine Hendry, director at Ultimate Content, provides her top charity podcast picks, from Life After Prison by the Prison Radio Association to Diabetes UK’s Diabetes Discussions and Centrepoint’s Point Made
