Like my colleague Andrew, I'm rather smug too - I love my job. I'm employed to make sure the people who fund our existence know how we spend their money wisely and effectively.

They range from the couple who give us £1,000 each year instead of buying Christmas and birthday presents for their entire family (yes, these amazing people are real), or a foundation which generously grants us £70,000 for a specific project, such as our palm oil work in Indonesia.
