A Labour win & how to generate income through enterprise
Manage episode 427325287 series 2870476
Lucinda and Emily are joined by James Dunbar, chief executive of the poverty reduction charity New Start Highland.
James describes how the charity was able to move from being a predominantly grant-receiving organisation to generating three-quarters of its income through trading and contracts.
He explains how he identified income-generating opportunities for New Start Highland, from furniture-making to removal services, as well as some of the risks of taking a more commercially-minded approach.
He provides pointers for other charities considering taking a similar route and stresses the importance of communication with all stakeholders.
Also in the episode, news editor Andy Ricketts joins Lucinda and Emily to consider Labour’s landslide election victory and its implications for the voluntary sector.
