Description

As the funding environment becomes ever more competitive, being ambitious, open to opportunities and willing to adapt is extremely valuable for charities. 

Inspire to Ignite is a small, fast-growing not for profit organisation based in Cambridgeshire in the UK. Rob was delighted to talk to the co-founder Sam Squire to understand how they’ve managed to quickly grow to serve so many young people in just three years. 

In this down-to-earth conversation, Sam shares examples and tactics that have helped on the journey so far. The conversation includes how to be open-minded, co-creation with funders, the Five Yard Rule for growing your impact and how to move swiftly and confidently when an opportunity presents itself.

We’d love to know what you think! And thank you so much for supporting our show by sharing it with colleagues or on social media. We are both on LinkedIn.
