Sharing a blogpost published last month on www.plymouthoctopus.org

In the summer, I was part of a #DemocraticLottery experiment to give #collaborative grants selected by chance.

In this blog, I argue that #luck works in #funding in a similar way to poker. #Funders and #voluntary groups need skill, but luck determines success.

In my role with #Plymouth Octopus Project, this summer I was part of a #funding experiment to make a £40000 grant to #collaborations working on community #wellbeing and suicide prevention by a #DemocraticLottery.

I am writing a series of blogs that tell the story of the experiment. Follow the link for part 1:
