Hi @SFHUK. Why is a degree an essential requirement for your Individual Giving Manager and Trusts & Grants Manager roles? What will graduates bring to these roles that nobody else could possibly offer?
“I’ve heard colleagues talk down about working class people (service users) during meetings and judging them based on where they come from” workingclassfundraisers.co.uk/about/
“I’m so, so tired after only a few years of fundraising. I really need a new job but they all seem to want people with a network with deep pockets. I’m strongly considering leaving the charity sector after 13 years" Sound familiar? workingclassfundraisers.co.uk/about/
“My colleagues talk about working class people as if Little Britain was a documentary." workingclassfundraisers.co.uk/about/

@CharityComms @SSAFA Hi @SSAFA & @CharityComms - why is a degree desirable for this role? Or, more importantly, why do you believe non-grads are less desirable for this role? Especially as veterans are far less likely to have a degree than the general population (about 20% of veterans have a degree)

And a huge thank you to all 146 of you who have so far completed our survey. We'll be sharing the results soon. If you're a fundraiser from a working class background and haven't completed it yet, there's still time: forms.gle/JYrMPRfnHTFknq…
I know we're a little quiet a the moment but there's lots going on behind the scenes. Bear with us while we get everything lined up, big things are coming!
Well we've sailed past 100 responses now, thank you to everyone who's shared/completed the survey/made it happen ✊
We're really close to 100 responses now. If you're a fundraiser from a working class background please do take a minute to complete this survey! docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAI…
**What do you want from the Working Class Fundraisers Group?** We need to know your experiences in the sector, and what you want from this group. Please let us know here: forms.gle/aYfd6PXVoJiNxk… And please RT to get this seen 🙌
@PaulaMcGoveney Thank you so much for sharing, Paula!
@FundraiserSarah No, that's fine. I've got your email so you'll be all lined up once we're ready, and I appreciate your help!
A MASSIVE thank you to everyone who's offered their support to get this off the ground. To anyone who's up for helping but hasn't been in touch yet then just fill out this form and we'll be in touch ✊ forms.gle/ULvttKteG6aXN6…
Thank you to everyone who's got in touch and offered to help get this group off the ground ✊ I didn't expect close to 300 followers and dozens of messages from a single tweet yesterday but there's obviously a MASSIVE need for this group. I'll be in touch ASAP 🙌
