Across the UK, philanthropists have been funding causes close to the hearts of communities. Their contributions have set up football clubs for at-risk youth, regenerated town centres, and advocated for a greener future.
Yet the highest earners and wealth owners are donating proportionately less and too few wealthy donors are participating in philanthropy. As one in five charities edge towards bankruptcy, philanthropy has never been more important.
This event will celebrate the launch of Onward’s upcoming philanthropy report which explores a range of key issues around simplifying Gift Aid, reforming the wealth and financial advice sector to provide better advice on philanthropy, and on government advocacy for philanthropy.
The expert panel, led by culture secretary Lucy Frazer will discuss how the UK can increase philanthropic funding for charities and target it towards the places and causes that stand to benefit the most.
The discussion will be followed by a short Q&A.
This event has already taken place. Please see our full events list for details of our other events.
