@MyCakeFinance @kanedr @karlwilding @DanielKing76 there is a fairly well-established academic literature on this - another index being %experiencing 25% drop in resources over a 3 year period - see from the same paper this:

What proportion of #charities in England & Wales generate a surplus every year for five years? Put another way how common is it to make a loss? We've run the numbers with @kanedr using data from @ChtyCommission so place your bets folks, we'll reveal the answer soon!

But decline not consistent across all groups of the population. 20 yrs survey data show particular decline among young adults in later survey waves who up thru a succession of crises; perhaps unsurprising if there's a -ve effect on participation

This chart ought to scare the bejeebers out of any politician planning for community involvement in levelling up (👀@michelgove) or taking back control (👀@lisanandy). Why are people not volunteering? And what - if anything - can government do about it? gov.uk/government/sta…

Much larger proportionate reduction in younger age groups for later birth cohorts. 25-34 in particular – those in this bracket now experienced great recession while at school / around the time they became adults so story of their lives one of growing insecurity. 3/3
TSRC@3rdSectorRC

Look at stability of volunteering in 75+ group across this 20 year period; small proportionate drop also in 65-74 group. Compared to later birth cohorts they grew up / came to adulthood with strong welfare state + reasonably secure economic prospects? 2/3

@karlwilding @DCMS Not great news, but important to note that decline not consistent everywhere @dcms @karlwilding @probonoecon @ncvo @uobsocialpolicy. Table shows formal vol rates on at least annual basis for age groups born 10 or 20 yrs apart. What’s the key takeaway here? 1/3

@dcms has published trends data on #volunteering and charitable giving for 2021/22. The formal volunteering trend is not looking good - and confirms what I think many of us are hearing. 1/n

not sure @karlwilding @danrcorry @civilsocietyUK @ncvo that cash interventions "worked" unless you've compared fate of orgs that got funding compared to (1) those that sought funds but didn't get them and (2) the charity population in general.
Karl Wilding@karlwilding

@DanRCorry @CivilSocietyUK @NayyaraTabassum @NCVO I don't have the aggregate numbers, but I think this is a moment to say to government and funders that their cash intervention worked. And that we all need to up our game on data. And that we aren't out of the woods (short-term overestimate, long-term underestimate impact) yet.
