"Sweet Charity" focuses on the changing world of charities; the skills needed to manage, fundraise, run a successful lobbying campaign or attract new work and the way in which UK charities will increasingly operate in a European environment. Broadly divided into three parts, this book describes the size and scope of the voluntary sector, how it operates and those ways in which changes to the welfare state have had a direct effect upon how charities operate. The second part breaks down the constituent parts of charities, looking in turn at the role of trustees, managers and fundraisers, financial staff and marketing experts. Lastly, the book deals with UK charities in a widening European context.
