Excited to share @ACFoundations new #FoundationsInFocus insight paper, examining how foundations navigated 2022-23. A big thank you goes to the 37 foundations who contributed their insights - well worth a read for foundations and foundation watchers alike.
📢 New report! Foundations in Focus adds context to the 2022-23 data on @360Giving's #UKGrantmaking platform, offering valuable insights into how #foundations navigated a year of political, social, and economic challenges. Thanks to @PearsFoundation.

Thoughtful piece from @FT on funder collaboration with words of wisdom from @ACFoundations' very own @HebdenJim . And if the article inspires you to seek collaboration partners, @FunderHub has 100+ opportunities for funders to work together on a wide range of issues across the UK.
'Philanthropists embrace collaborative funding to multiply their impact'. Great @FT piece on the growth in funder collaboration. It highlights benefits such as sharing risk, learning and expertise, helping funders to scale impact and reduce duplication.

Wide ranging and positive discussion with Shadow Minister @LilianGreenwood at Civil Society Group this morning nicely captured by @SaskiaAlice of @NCVO in this thread. No question barred (or dodged!).
Was great to meet with @LilianGreenwood today as part of the Civil Society Group. Here’s some insight’s from our chat…👇. 1. She has a BIG issue with the words ‘third sector’. “The word third shows you’re someway down the list. You’re really not an afterthought.”.
