  • Episode 127 Small Charity, Big Headache with Emma Cantrell MBE
    Apr 22 2025
    'Why don't you just shut it down?"

    Emma Cantrell MBE is a visionary leader, consultant, and social entrepreneur with over a decade of experience in the charity sector. She’s the founder of First Days Children’s Charity, where she built a thriving organisation from the ground up, ensuring financial stability, growing a dedicated team, and supporting families in need. As its CEO, and now Chair of Trustees, she has been instrumental in shaping its strategy and vision.

    Kenneth meanwhile, recounts his experience as the organiser of a recent stag do, we join James for the New Financial Year celebrations and we review punting in Cambridge. Things get a little heavier as we discuss how childrens’ needs are not being met and peek behind the curtain of middle-class fly-tipping. We’ve got the differences between small and large charities as well as small businesses and charities. We’ve got social media pressures, the importance of trustees, where the money in the system is heading, plus the hope and enjoyment behind all the above.

    This episode comes packed with references to a recent report ‘Breaking Point: The Mental Health Crisis in Small Organisation Leadership’ conducted by Fair Collective in partnership with NCVO and with funding from The Talent Fund which can be found on our Do More Good website.

  • Episode 126: How to side-hustle with Rob Green
    Mar 17 2025
    "The most important person in the organisation is the Database Manager"

    James is getting excited about a new financial year and Kenneth has spent four days in the big smoke, avoiding the jabs from his kids. We revist our GCSEs and the question of whether face to face fundraisers make the best fundraisers. There's getting a reality check early, meeting your heroes, selling a cookie, an outcome and a cause. Our guest describes the subtle difference between a digital approach to fundraising rather than a fundraising approach to digital, where inspiration for a company name comes from and making a million in the first month. Then we round up with a sensible approach to a side hustle bearing in mind three kids, a mortgage and thirteen needy chickens. It's Rob Green, the founder of Bridgit.

  • Episode 125: Rethinking communities with Nathan Atkinson, co-counder of Rethink Food.
    Jan 29 2025
    "All behaviour is a form of communication"

    We kick off with tales of multiplying Australians and Christmas Day parkruns, trips to the football and a short-lived, pre-ban career as a TikTok influencer before delving into fighting for the underdog, the call of teaching, and how very few things in life are truly original. We get into how supporting a child, then a class and finally a community, all began with a bulk order of toasters. We use a trojan carrot to save the planet, use food to create connections and trick parents into learning by seeing people as a whole.
