Time for a reset? Our #CharitEpulse chatters James Saunders, Charles Mesquita, and Catherine Rustomji have plenty to discuss in this week’s podcast including: - Government’s new “Covenant”: Designed to reset relations between government and the charity sector. - Public trust remains strong: The Charity Commission’s 2025 research shows that public trust in charities remains high, with the sector ranking just below doctors and above the police and politicians. But is it time to question the value of publishing this data every year? - Island Health Trust: The Charity Commission’s inquiry uncovered serious governance failures, including the misuse of £350,000. The former chair has been disqualified for seven years. While the case highlights the need for stronger oversight, concerns remain about the recovery of funds and sector-wide lessons. - Succession struggles: Smaller charities continue to face challenges with succession planning. #CharitySector #CharityNews #Covenant #Government #CharityCommission #SuccessionPlanning

Burnout in the workplace has become more common yet it remains a taboo topic. Burnout isn’t simply about being busy or tired, it’s a chronic state of physical, emotional and mental exhaustion that can lead to serious consequences, including anxiety, depression and worse.    Leaders within organisations can implement training programmes to offer practical strategies for dealing with workplace burnout. This includes setting boundaries, managing time effectively and encouraging self-care. By creating safe spaces for dialogue, early warning signs of burnout can be identified and addressed before issues escalate. This transparency builds trust and strengthens team cohesion.    Read more about the steps you can take to prevent burnout within your organisation. #WorkplaceWellbeing #LeadershipDevelopment #WorkplaceBurnout
