Third Sector Podcast

This month, we look at Facebook. It's a vital fundraising tool, but can charities justify giving money to an organisation that has been criticised for allowing fake news and hate speech? Third Sector’s senior reporter, Stephen Delahunty, explored this issue in the most recent edition of Third Sector and speaks to Sarah Clarke of CharityComms and digital expert Zoe Amar to find out how the situation has developed.This episode of the Third Sector podcast is sponsored by Markel UK. https://uk.markel.com/Although it’s been a difficult year for everyone, you’d struggle to find a sector that’s been more on the front line than the care sector. That’s why, from the get-go of the COVID-19 pandemic, Markel’s priority has been going above and beyond to make sure its care customers felt supported so they could focus on doing what they do best.
