"The Government's been very clear it wants to be a mission driven government. We see civil society and philanthropy as an absolutely critical partner in the delivery of those missions. There's an opportunity to work together and align priorities, especially in these times of fiscal constraint." - Anna Mowbray, CAF's Policy Manager. In the latest episode of the Charity Finance Group's podcast, Anna joins fellow policy experts from the charity sector Rebecca Young from NCVO and Charlotte Prothero from Pro Bono Economics to discuss what the new Labour government means for charities and civil society.

It was great to see the Rural Urban Synthesis Society (RUSS) development in Lewisham fully launched, with 36 families now enjoying high-quality, sustainable, and permanently affordable housing. Joanne Wedderspoon, our Growth and Performance Lead of the Impact Accelerator, represented Charities Aid Foundation at the event to celebrate this milestone. Back in 2016, we provided RUSS with a £100,000 unsecured loan from the Community Land Trust Fund II to cover the planning stage costs for this project. It’s a privilege to have been an early supporter and to have witnessed their journey to this launch. Congratulations to RUSS and everyone involved—the impact of this scheme will benefit many generations to come. #AffordableHousing #SocialInvestment #CommunityLedHousing

Charities are stretched by the ongoing cost-of-living crisis and struggling to continue providing services to the people that need them. They need more support than ever, so here's how you can maximise giving to good causes ⬇️ ✅ Top-up regular donations Inflation is eroding the value of charity donations. If you make a regular donation to charity, consider if you can increase it to keep up with inflation. ✅ Ensure donations include Gift Aid With Gift Aid, charities can claim an extra 25p for every £1 you donate. But every year more than £500 million of Gift Aid goes unclaimed, according to the Charity Finance Group. ✅ Give from your pay Through payroll giving schemes, like CAF's Give As You Earn, employees can give to any UK registered charity straight from their salary. Donations are tax-effective because they are taken before income tax is applied. ✅ Donate for core costs Charities will particularly welcome ‘unrestricted funding’, not tied to a particular campaign, to cover their core costs at this time. ✅ Use Direct Debit Using this method can help charities to plan and ensures that any Gift Aid owed on the donation can be reclaimed by the charity. #Philanthropy #Charity #Giving
