It's Payroll Giving Month, and we're diving deep into one of fundraising's most overlooked opportunities. Host Simon Scriver welcomes back Mevi Slade from Cancer Research UK and Ollie Lashbrook from Macmillan Cancer Support—both linvolved with the CIOF Payroll Giving Special Interest Group, to explore why this tax-efficient giving method deserves more attention. In this episode, you'll discover: - What payroll giving is and how it works (spoiler: it's simpler than you think!) - Why 59% of people have never heard of this scheme—and why that's actually good news - How to overcome the "it's too laborious" objection from employers - The role of Professional Fundraising Organisations (PFOs) in donor recruitment - Why running payroll giving internally gives you the perfect case study for corporate partners - How to position payroll giving as an employee benefit, not just another admin task - Why this income stream works for charities of all sizes—not just the big players Whether you're in corporate partnerships, individual giving, or just curious about untapped fundraising opportunities, this episode reveals why payroll giving might be the most underutilised tool in your fundraising toolkit.

The UK's new National Cancer Plan sets out an ambitious vision for improving survival, speeding up diagnosis and transforming patient experience, but what will it take to turn those commitments into reality? For this episode of Health on the Line, Matthew Taylor is joined by Gemma Peters, chief executive of Macmillan Cancer Support, to discuss what the plan means for people living with cancer now and in the future. Drawing on Macmillan's frontline insight, Gemma discusses the rising number of people affected by cancer, the importance of earlier diagnosis, and her enthusiasm for the introduction of personal care plans, which take greater stock of a patient's needs and wishes. Together, they explore the opportunities the plan presents, the challenges of delivering more equitable outcomes, and the vital role charities and community organisations play alongside the NHS in cancer care. We also hear from Chloe Knight, head of EDI communications at the NHS Confederation. She discusses the Confederation's work in tackling the racial inequalities that continue to negatively shape access, experience and outcomes for NHS staff and patients. Health on the Line is an NHS Confederation podcast produced by HealthCommsPlus. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

On this weeks episode of One For The Road I am joined by Steve Smith. Steve was born in Barking, Essex, and grew up in the 80s and 90s on a typical UK housing estate, where childhood meant knocking on other kids' doors, building bike ramps and playing outside until it got dark. His parents loved a drink, but it was always harmless, social fun — garden parties, Christmas and New Year gatherings, with people often coming and going until the early hours. Alcohol was always present, yet never to a point where it was questioned, and from an early age Steve came to associate alcohol with fun. Inspired by the film Cocktail, Steve became a flair bartender and, throughout the 1990s, worked in the West End of London during a time when bartending carried a distinctly rock 'n' roll lifestyle — long nights, heavy drinking and early starts were simply part of the culture. In 2000, he became World Flair Bartending Champion. After losing his mum to ovarian cancer, Steve ran the London Marathon in 2009 for Macmillan Cancer Support, which sparked a long-term love of endurance sport. For many years, that sat alongside a belief that alcohol wasn't an issue — often using marathons as proof of that. In 2020, while training for his first Ironman, Steve decided to take a break from alcohol. The break stuck. Since then, he has completed five full-distance Ironman races and multiple ultramarathons, including the Winter Downs 200 — a non-stop 200-mile race across southern England in December.Going alcohol-free didn't change who Steve was — it changed what he believed was possible.insta: @Steve Smithweb:www.soberilliant.comlinkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/steve-smith-5917519a/If you want to connect with me via Instagram, you can find me on the instahandle @Soberdave https://www.instagram.com/soberdave/or via my website https://davidwilsoncoaching.com/Provided below are links for services offering additional help and advice.www.drinkaware.co.uk/advice/alcohol-support-serviceshttps://nacoa.org.uk/Show producer- Daniella Attanasio-MartinezInstagram - @TheDaniellaMartinezhttps://www.instagram.com/thedaniellamartinez/www.instagram.com/grownuphustle Hosted on Acast.

We're revisiting one of the early Purposely episodes, a conversation with Steve Wickham, founder of The Giving Department (which is till going strong) and a long-time leader in philanthropy, corporate responsibility, and social impact.Steve has spent more than two decades helping companies and philanthropists connect their resources with the people and organisations that need them most. Before launching The Giving Department in 2010, he held senior roles at Macmillan Cancer Support and The King's Trust (then the Prince's Trust), shaping programmes that enabled businesses and donors to support young people and communities across the UK.How he made the jump from major national charities to starting his own social-purpose business.Why he built The Giving Department as a for-profit impact company, and what that model makes possible.The early projects that put the business on the map, including corporate partnerships that changed how companies think about doing good.His belief that generosity starts with people, not campaigns and why personal connection still drives most giving.Lessons from his time at The King's Trust and Macmillan, including what strong partnerships look like behind the scenes.The influence of his family, particularly his late father, on his approach to work, kindness, and community.The pressures charities face today and why some organisations will adapt while others won't survive.Steve's blend of experience, honesty, and practical insight still lands today. The conversation strips philanthropy back to what really matters: relationships, trust, and people showing up for each other.

October is Breast Cancer awareness month and did you know that 58% of people in the UK (31 million people) hold 'outdated' views about cancer with that rising to 77% of people from ethnically diverse backgrounds according to Macmillan Cancer Support, one of the UK's biggest cancer support charities. Cancer is not commonly spoken about in the south asian community and there is still a lot of stigma around the topic which those affected by cancer might not have anyone to turn to get the right support or have the right information. Macmillan is warning that with more people living with cancer than ever before it's never been more important for people to be aware of the accurate and trusted support available. For information, support or just someone to talk to, call Macmillan's free, confidential Support line 7-days a week on 0808 808 00 00 or visit macmillan.org.uk/whateveryouneed. Today I'm joined by Priyanka Pandya, a mother of two and children's life coach who was diagnosed with Grade 3 triple negative breast cancer in May 2022 who joins the podcast to share her story with battling Breast Cancer and tackling the stigma of cancer within the South Asian Community. Timestamps: 00:00:00 intro00:01:56 what is breast cancer?00:02:28 priyanka's cancer diagnosis 00:08:44 putting on a brave face 00:10:40 how priyanka told her children about her cancer diagnosis 00:16:26 navigating cancer as a family 00:18:38 tests after cancer diagnosis00:19:26 chemotherapy and cold capping00:24:10 mental health during chemotherapy 00:25:00 writing a children's book about cancer00:26:02 the side-effects of chemotherapy 00:27:21 misconceptions of cancer in the south asian community 00:28:27 advice to people going through cancer 00:29:29 becoming cancer-free 00:32:24 how cancer changed her outlook on life 00:32:41 life after cancer If this episode resonated, don't forget to follow or subscribe to It's Preeti Personal and leave a 5★ review as it helps other South Asian girls find the podcast and feel a little less alone

In this episode, the Agony Aunties address a heart-wrenching question from a listener facing a terminal diagnosis. They offer invaluable advice on how to communicate this devastating news to teenage children without causing unnecessary fear or resorting to dishonesty. They emphasise the importance of honesty and ongoing dialogue, suggest starting the conversation by asking the children what they already understand about the illness, and provide strategies to help manage the emotional burden for both the parent and the children. They also discuss the benefits of using supportive resources from organisations like Child Bereavement UK and Macmillan, and the option of preparing messages and videos for future milestones in the child's life. The discussion concludes with advice on engaging schools and other family members for additional support.

In this episode, I sit down with Dylan Evans, a two-time cancer survivor who refuses to let adversity define him. After first overcoming Hodgkin's lymphoma in 2018, Dylan faced a relapse in 2024, enduring chemotherapy and a stem cell transplant to get back into remission. Now, he's taking on an immense physical challenge—the English ROC Triathlon—to raise funds for Macmillan Cancer Support, a charity that has been there for him every step of the way. We talk about his journey through cancer, the resilience it takes to keep fighting, and why he's pushing his limits with this grueling endurance race.

The second episode in the HRT after breast cancer series features oncologist Prof. Richard Simcock who will discuss potential pathways for using HRT after breast cancer despite the lack of robust data.Prof Simcock is a consultant clinical oncologist at University Hospitals Sussex NHS Foundation Trust, where he provides clinical care to people with breast cancer. He is also the consultant medical adviser for our friends at the charity Macmillan Cancer Support and an Honorary Professor at Brighton and Sussex Medical Schools.This mini-series explores hormone replacement therapy (HRT) after breast cancer, a controversial and emotive subject. The conversation focuses on the further understanding of the risks and benefits of HRT (hormone replacement therapy) or also MHT (menopause hormone therapy), the emotional impact on patients, and the different views among medical professionals. The goal is to provide understanding for patients seeking HRT after breast cancer and insight for doctors on how to move forward without robust evidence. Dani Binnington, host of the Menopause And Cancer podcast, and founder of the not-for-profit organisation Menopause And Cancer has spoken to hundreds of women who feel like they are in a void and have nowhere to turn to when discussing this difficult topic. Welcome to our HRT after breast cancer series.In this episode we discuss:Why limited data and the changing landscape of breast cancer treatment make it challenging to provide definitive answers about HRT after breast cancer.How could we move forward without robust data?The challenges doctors face in prescribing HRT after breast cancer. How the establishing of a registry could provide doctors with confidence in prescribing HRT and contribute to the global sum of knowledge on the topic.Understanding and quantifying risk is crucial in the HRT conversation, and patient decision aids can help visualise the potential benefits and risks.Empowering patients with information and involving them in shared decision-making can help them make informed choices about their treatment options.Advancements in breast cancer treatment, such as selective oestrogen receptor degraders, offer hope for future options with fewer side effects.Episode Highlights:00:00 Intro.06:22 Empower patients to understand and manage treatments.13:36 Risk is a complex and multifaceted issue.19:20 Understanding benefits and risks, patient-doctor relationship.24:37 Health professionals collaborate for consensus on best practices.31:59 New drugs to manage hot flushes effectively.Connect with us:For more information and resources visit our website: www.menopauseandcancer.org Or follow us on Instagram @menopause_and_cancer Join our Facebook group: www.facebook.com/groups/menopauseandcancerchathubThe walking challenge I mention is here for you: https://move-with-menopause-and-cancer.raiselysite.com/

A truly inspiring woman, Jo Moseley shares her journey with me about how finding a new type of movement played a pivotal role in changing her life direction and helped her overcome sadness. We discuss the catalysts that led her to embrace stand-up paddle boarding, including perimenopause and personal loss.  Jo talks about the paddleboarding challenges she set herself, including a coast-to-coast journey and fundraising efforts. She emphasises the transformative power of movement on mental health and finding joy in the small things, as well as the support she received from friends and family. In our conversation, Jo also shares her passion for beach cleans and the positive impact they have on the environment and personal well-being. She emphasizes the sense of agency and purpose that comes from making a difference, meeting others, and being part of a community.  Jo is a truly relatable person who set challenges to move herself forward and in so doing, made a hugely positive change in her life.  About this week's guest: Jo Moseley is a 59 year old single Mum of two grown up sons from in Yorkshire. After a difficult perimenopause that left her crying in supermarket aisles and the grief of losing her Mum, Jo rowed a million metres and marathon for Macmillan Cancer Support in her memory in 2014. In 2016 she started paddleboarding having injured her knee earlier that year. She knew immediately it was something very special and for the first time in months she “felt like a warrior not a worrier.”  Three years later Jo became the first woman to paddleboard 162 miles coast to coast fundraising and picking up litter.  A film about that challenge called Brave Enough - A Journey Home to Joy has been screened to a great reception online and at prestigious adventure festivals, which is available to rent or buy.  Her first book SUP Great Britain (as above) was published by Vertebrate Publishing in June 2022 and was the first GB guide dedicated to paddleboarding. It soon became a bestseller. As a result she was invited to write a book about paddleboarding in the Lake District which will be published in spring 2024.  Jo is currently setting herself a #FeelGoodJoy challenge to do a Headstand a Day until she's 60 - which will be December 2024!  Instagram www.instagram.com/@jomoseley Website www.jomoseley.com Email healthyhappyfifty@yahoo.com Book: ‘Stand-up Paddleboarding in Great Britain: Beautiful places to SUP in England, Scotland & Wales' - on Amazon or on Adventure Books More about your host, Wendy Wendy (49) founded Reclaim Movement after a running injury at 40 turned into 4 years of chronic pain.

In this video, the speaker, Dan, who has autism and ADHD, shares three tips for navigating sensory overloads, a common challenge for autistic individuals: 00:00 Intro 00:50 Use Noise-Canceling Headphones: Dan recommends carrying noise-canceling headphones like the Apple AirPods Max to block out sensory triggers in noisy environments, helping to reduce overload. 01:24 Prioritize Comfort Over Fashion: When traveling or in situations where comfort is essential, Dan suggests wearing comfortable clothing like pajamas or sweats. You can change into more formal attire when necessary, providing a sense of control in unfamiliar environments. 01:57 Wear Sunglasses: Sunglasses can help in social situations and offer relief to those with light sensitivity. They also provide a way to avoid direct eye contact, which can be challenging for some autistic individuals. 02:24 Outro If you're reading this you're a hero!

My guest for this episode is Gemma Ellison who currently works as a Senior Talent & Leadership Manager at Macmillan Cancer Support.However, Gemma didn't start her career within HR. She had studied Law at university and went on to become a solicitor. An opportunity presented itself when she spoke up about the culture within the law firm she was working at where she was told to 'do something about it'. Gemma subsequently wrote a three year strategy to drive the changes she felt were required.Interestingly, Gemma had always had an interest in Culture, Leadership, and the improving workplaces so this sliding doors moment presented her with an opportunity to follow her passion and she has been helping various businesses since.This is a very candid and fascinating conversation. Gemma shares pivotal periods in her life that contributed to her working career and some of the challenges and obstacles she has had to endure and overcome.I really want to thank Gemma for being so honest during our recording as it enabled some deep conversations that make for a riveting listen.
