Third Sector Podcast Chris Sherwood on the RSPCA's growth, governance and coalitions for change
Lucinda Rouse and Emily Burt are joined by Chris Sherwood, chief executive of the RSPCA, to reflect on his six years at the charity before he moves on to the top job at the NSPCC.
Chris likens the reality of navigating the RSPCA’s significant public profile to operating in a goldfish bowl.
He stresses the importance of stimulating engagement with the charity’s extensive branch network to instigate culture change and provides his thoughts on the voluntary sector under Sir Keir Starmer's Labour government.
Also in the episode, Lucinda and Emily hear from Maddy Desforges, chief executive of the local infrastructure body Navca, about new guidance for charities navigating Section 114 notices.
