   The transformation of a grantmaker: the Smallwood Trust

   This episode covers the transformative journey of grantmaker, the Smallwood Trust. I speak to Paul Carbury (CEO) and Ambreen Shah (Trustee), as they shed light on the Trust’s metamorphosis over the past six and a half years. Expect insights into the trust’s evolution from implementing governance changes, to experimenting with funding models, to modifying their strategic plan and recruitment processes. Through their journey, they’ve become intentional about identifying and addressing inequalities within their mission—an enlightening transformation for both the trust and the charities they support. We’ll uncover the challenges and triumphs of redistributing power and assets within the context of funding for women's organizations. We’ll explore how the Smallwood Trust strikes the balance between nurturing long-term relationships with well-established organizations, and bringing in fresh perspectives through funding new charities. We cover various aspects from reducing gendered poverty through local initiatives, to the importance of building trust and amplifying voices from disenfranchised communities. We also discuss Smallwood's board shadowing programme — designed to empower women and bring diversity to the boardroom. Paul and Ambreen share their experiences and insights into how this programme has broken down power dynamics and empowered individuals to become trustees. * If you enjoy the podcast, please do follow us and leave a rating / review. * The Charity Impact Podcast aims to help you increase your charity’s income and impact by sharing the experience and expertise of our guests.
