Hello!

I hope you are well, <<First Name>>. Welcome to the latest email newsletter! As ever, this email has stories, links, news and event write-ups for you to read and keep on file. Hope you find it helpful. And if you're wondering why I'm wearing headphones in this picture, do read on.

What are the first fundraising strategy principles for leaders?

This is the first blog in a series based on a webinar* session I co-presented at Fundraising Everywhere’s Charity Leadership Festival alongside Desiree D’Souza, Executive Director of Social Innovation and Social Impact at See Ability.

Read "Fundraising strategy: what do leaders need to do? Blog 1 - first principles"

* hence the headphones

"Thinking about Christmas appeals in June!"

I recently attended an excellent session presented by Muna Hussen of Raisely and public fundraising specialist Sarah Goddard on the subject of planning your Christmas appeals in June (and more besides). My notes are here.

**(Actually, the book is called 'Fundraising Strategy' by Dr Claire Routley & Richard Sved)**

Fundraising Strategy is the ultimate companion for any fundraiser who wants to think more strategically about their work, or who has been tasked with leading a strategy process.

Assess. Plan. Fundraise. Change the world!

Shall we meet?

If you would like to chat on Zoom (other videoconferencing apps are available or we could speak on the phone instead, or even meet in real life!), just click here to fix it up. Hundreds of people have booked in meetings with me so far this way and it's lovely! Or you can see my recent session with Desiree D'Sousa at the Fundraising Everywhere Leadership Summit - loads of other great sessions too - here!

Let's stay in touch

That's all for now. Do give me a call, or book an appointment with me if you would like to chat and/or smile/wave, and I'm on Twitter, Threads(!) and LinkedIn.

With best wishes
