    When Charity Goes Wrong

    This three-part podcast documentary examines three charities where things went badly wrong. It questions whether their cases throw up any weaknesses in how the UK’s voluntary organisations are governed and regulated.

    Featuring voices close to the action at Kids Company, the Captain Tom Foundation and Mermaids, along with legal experts and the head of the Charity Commission, the series asks what lessons the wider sector can take from each of these high-profile cases to ensure other charities avoid the same harmful pitfalls.
