Some initial thoughts from me on what charities need to be thinking about now we have an election date.
As the Prime Minister has called a #GeneralElection for 4 July, charities will now be bringing forward their election plans and thinking about their activity over the next seven weeks. Here, @_c_walker shares some key things you can do π

Lots of challenges for campaigners at the moment, but striking that 78% are reporting campaign wins/milestones over the past 12 months. A very strong case for organisations to support and invest in their campaigns teams.
πCampaigners are facing pressure from all sides - politicians, media, donors, regulators, and their own organisations. Read the highlights in our Under Pressure report here: https://t.co/EA0h3traFh
