Third Sector is launching a new podcast series, and we want to hear from you.

The End of Charity (and How to Survive) will explore how the landscape for doing good has shifted dramatically in recent years, and whether charities need to evolve for the future.

The series will look at attempts to move away from the Victorian origins of charity, the uncomfortable power dynamics that still exist in the sector and how online giving platforms, the rise of socially-conscious businesses and shifting supporter demographics could require a radical shake-up of the charity model.

The panel members will kick off the discussion, but contributions from delegates will be enthusiastically welcomed. We’re eager to find out what issues you think should be covered by this series, and to hear your examples of charities finding innovative ways to do good in the world.

Speakers:

Rhodri Davies, philanthropy expert in residence, Pears Foundation

Martha Awojobi, chief executive, JMB Consulting
