Hosted by Alex Sexton, Communications Manager, Sport and Recreation Alliance ( @Alexx_Sexxton ). This episode we take a look into Crowdfunding and how, when used effectively, it can help to supplement income generation among sport and recreation organisations. With funding being a very real and regular concern among a large proportion of our membership, therefore alternative funding options are being taken more seriously and Crowdfunding online is one such avenue which can provide several advantages. We are joined by two of our members who share their success stories and the impact it has made. Carey Davies, Hill Walking Development Officer at The British Mountaineering Council provides an insight into the Mend our Mountains campaign. The award-winning, headline-grabbing campaign raised more than £100,000 to repair Britain’s hills and mountains Following the success of their Glide Britain campaign, Dave Latimer, chairman of the Development Committee at the British Gliding Association explains how their project has reached new audiences to get more people involved in gliding.

Hosted by Rob Arnott, Communications and Member Engagement Manager, Sport and Recreation Alliance (@RobArnott99). This week we dive into the Community Amateur Sports Club (CASC) Scheme which allows local amateur sports clubs to register with HMRC and benefit from a range of tax and giving benefits, including Gift Aid. With the latest Sports Club Survey showing a worrying trend of rising costs and falling income at many clubs we wanted to share more detail about the CASC scheme so clubs can make an informed decision about whether the scheme makes financial sense for them. We are joined on the pod by our tax advisor, Richard Baldwin MBE who brings 30 years of experience to the table and we also have a chat with Dave Stubley, Club Management & Volunteer Manager at the RFU, about his experience of supporting numerous rugby clubs in their journey to becoming CASC registered. And to help us make sense of it all is our very own Policy Manager, Leigh Thompson.
