31 May 2024

The UK charity sector’s role in sustaining the fabric of communities is increasingly important as poverty spreads during the worst cost-of living crisis since the 1970s, at the same time as donations are weaker and costs are rising.

Media play a crucial role in raising the awareness, engagement and donations to charities by individuals, the bedrock of income. Selected case studies of TV, radio and the press show how charities leverage their unique qualities to engage audiences across the UK.

We highlight Gordon Brown’s landmark anti-poverty community-based Multibank initiative, which gifts essentials to those most in need, and has vital support from Sky, the Financial Times and News UK.

Hamish Low was quoted in Business Insider on "Apple is scrambling to catch up in a race it had a headstart in"

11 March 2025

"The delay makes a lot of sense," Hamish Low, an analyst at Enders Analysis, told Business Insider. "Apple clearly got ahead of itself with Apple Intelligence with disappointing features, awkward marketing campaigns, and tepid consumer demand. Apple's position here is ultimately defensive, it has much more to lose than to gain from the AI race."

"Alexa+ is notable for at least claiming to bring much of the advanced functionality that you would want from a real AI assistant," Low said. "We will need to see how far it lives up to this with its public launch later this month, but its ability to plug into a host of APIs, and directly access and interact with websites in the background otherwise, is key."

ITV FY 2024 results: Profit improves as engagement leaks

11 March 2025

ITV saw advertising revenue growth in 2024 (+2% to £1.8 billion), aided by the Euros. This balanced some of Studios’ 6% decline (to £2.0 billion), however, total external revenues were down 4% (£3.5 billion)

Despite the revenue drop, profits improved, with group adjusted EBITA increasing 11% to £542 million. This was aided by a unique set of circumstances which drove Studios’ profit to a record high with cross-company cost-cutting showing its benefit

ITV is making strides in its transition to digital but even though the revenue story is largely positive, the company continues to leak engagement and viewing share

Enders Analysis was mentioned in The Times on "Why are the UK and Europe falling behind on 5G?"

10 March 2025

It is this high degree of fragmentation, operators argue, that has driven up competition and pushed down prices, as usage of the network has surged. In the UK alone, mobile service revenues have fallen by almost 30 per cent in real terms over the past decade while mobile traffic levels are more than 30 times higher over the same period, according to Enders, the telecoms consultancy.
