How can charities influence policy?

Charity campaigning will never be as well-resourced as lobbying by the private sector. However, with increasing government cuts and the current cost-of-living crisis, the charity sector is working under increasing financial constraints, meaning charitable organisations have to be even more strategic in how they try to influence government policy.
In today’s episode, Stella is joined by Babs Williams, CEO of Frontline to explore different strategies for influencing government, and considerations that should be made when doing so.
