Did not expect a question that starts out 'Do you think before you speak?' to go so well. A question from Charlotte Harpur A response from Eileen Gu.

What a team!!!
It’s day 2 at the Labour Party Conference and the team are raring to go.
We’re looking forward to highlighting the vital role charities and voluntary organisations play in making communities fairer, stronger, and more connected.
Come and see us at stand D16 to explore how we can create change together.

Our Public Affairs team had a great meeting with @marykfoy, Chair of the APPG on Charities & Volunteering, to talk plans for the year ahead. We’re looking forward to working together to highlight key issues facing the voluntary sector in Parliament.

Well said @pollyn1
I loved this podcast!!! Such a relief to hear such a clear explanation why charity leaders have a demanding role and that the public should trust their money is well spent
Thank you @MarinaHyde and @richardosman for this compelling listen!

Thank you @MarinaHyde @richardosman for explaining so forcefully that running a charity is a job for people who know what they’re doing. And more important, clarifying that people shouldn’t stop giving just because a celeb didn’t understand the above. Nice one.

Still don’t know how Aldershot manager Mark Molesley kept a straight face in this. An all-timer

I've seen loved ones suffer needlessly at the end of their life.
I’ll never forget my Dad saying, “I don’t want that to happen to me”.
That’s why I support @dignityindying. And why I'm entering the private member's bill ballot today with an Assisted Dying Bill

Possibly the most incredible Beethoven Ode to Joy flashmob by the Philharmonic Orchestra of Nuremberg and the Hans-Sachs-Choir in front of the St. Lorenz Church in Nuremberg, Germany.

Don’t let the modesty of the vehicle fool you:
This is a truly SEISMIC victory for refugees and the rest of us who campaigned our guts out for the right to asylum for people fleeing torture and persecution 🎉
