| ⚾ Softball Update – It’s Getting Exciting! ⚾ |
|
|
Wow – what a week with this heatwave! ☀️🔥 Hope everyone has been keeping cool while still smashing it on the pitch!
We’ve got a busy couple of weeks ahead with lots of matches before the knockout stage begins on the week of 10 July – who’s excited?! 🙌
I definitely am!! I can’t wait to take on other teams and see how far we can go through the knockout rounds. Secretly (or not so secretly! 😄), I’m hoping we make it all the way to the final… it would be my first time ever!
A big thank you to everyone who has already registered for finals night – we’ve got a strong majority signed up, which is amazing to see 💪If you haven’t registered yet, just a gentle reminder to sign up before **Friday 26 June at 4pm**… don’t miss out! 👀
Let’s keep the momentum going, support each other, and enjoy every match (and maybe find some shade too! 😎). Bring it on!! 🔥⚾

| Wood for Trees at the London Charity Softball League |
|
The LCSL brings together people from across the charity sector to compete, connect, and, frankly, have a good time in the sunshine (hopefully!) We’re proud to be sponsoring the BSL resource this year. Softball is a game built on communication, and the LCSL's commitment to making that communication accessible to deaf and hard of hearing players reflects the kind of practical inclusion work that makes a real difference.
We are a data and insight consultancy working exclusively with charities and not-for-profit organisations. Our analysts sit alongside fundraising teams, helping them understand who their supporters are, which income streams are at risk, and where the next gift is most likely to come from. We don’t hand over reports and leave – we stay, we build capability, and we measure what changes.
The causes our clients serve range from hospices, humanitarian organisations to animal welfare charities. They all share a belief that better decisions, taken with better evidence, means more money reaching the people and causes who need it.
We can’t wait to see everyone at the final – there will be talented teams, close games, and the particular joy of watching charity sector professionals discover muscles they had forgotten about! |
