Public trust in charities is high - much higher than media organisations or politicians. But that trust is also vulnerable, says a new report, because public support rests partly on unrealistic assumptions of the role of charities.
This could cause problems as more charities pitch for state contracts to provide public services, potentially undermining their reputation as 'more honest and possessing greater integrity than government', says Trust in Charities, launched by the Association of Chief Executives of Voluntary Organisations at its annual conference tomorrow."
