This is an important post by the brilliant Fair Collective highlighting power imbalances in the charity sector. It is important to remember this is only part of the picture as charities themselves often get privileged in our conversations (and the fundraising) around social change work in the UK to the neglect of other organisational structures, movements and informal work. What we don't talk about enough is the fact that the dominance of a few groups narrows the voices we hear and the solutions that are offered. Here are 2 pieces I love on the fact that we should be looking to smaller groups if we want to make big impact: - This recent piece from the Director of the CLIMA Fund is a fantastic challenge to the assumption that scale is about replicating a single solution. It champions the role of multiple, grassroots solutions to scale impact - https://lnkd.in/ehVSQ7kM - This research, supported by the Lloyds Bank Foundation for England and Wales from a couple of years back, shows how the response of smaller organisations is distinct. The research highlights how small charities often work flexibly, show up and stick around - https://lnkd.in/eszmyUTA #power #socialchange #smallcharities #justice #impact
