Charity Well 2025 launched today!

5 years on from my original study I’m back to measure wellbeing in the charity sector in 2025

Great wellbeing helps charities and their people Thrive! Poor wellbeing leads to burnout, reduced impact and churn

Inspired by @thirdsectorlab.co.uk’s post about eating boiled egg on a train, I’d love to know

What’s your BEST / WORST train story?

Mine: for 4 consecutive Sunday nights, my alarm clock (1999) went off in my bag on my London train and it was always the same people in the carriage!

#EggGate

That’s really made me chuckle! If we ever get to meet at any IRL charity events, I know what I’m bringing 😂

For those of us who can’t eat bread, the choice of grab and go food sometimes means #EggOnATrain I’m afraid - I’ve done it myself 😱

Holy 💩!!!

Photo of my December calendar with “Quieter than you’d think” written over each week and “Help charities improve the wellbeing of their staff” in the Top Priorities box

“You must be over-run with work in this climate!”

You’d think so wouldn’t you! But it’s not the case

You may think you can’t afford to do anything on wellbeing right now

I’d suggest you can’t afford NOT to do anything on wellbeing right now!

Get in touch - there is always something I can do!

A LONG time ago, I remember an advert appeared in UK broadsheets after an American election, that claimed to be taken out by “the American People” that said something like “so 60million Americans CAN be wrong”.
