Charities: The Unsung Heroes Shaping Britain’s Future
Manage episode 492251117 series 3666686
Charities are Britain’s unsung heroes, quietly powering our communities. On this episode of Lou Brown Talks, I sit down with Sir Stephen Bubb, head of Oxford’s Gradel Institute of Charity. From championing charities on Radio 4 to launching an institute inspired by a philanthropist’s vision, Stephen reveals their £200 billion economic impact and how underfunded leadership holds them back.
We explore how charities support ex-prisoners, elderly patients, and more—yet face a 37% volunteering drop since COVID. With a report headed to MPs, this episode shows why charities deserve respect as society’s backbone, driven by passionate leaders.
