Strategic Support
STRATEGY & WORK PLANS
-
Do you have a strategic plan in place for the next three to five years?
-
Are your fundraising activities aligned to your charity's vision / mission / values and strategy?
-
Do you have fundraising plan in place to ensure you will achieve your strategic objectives?
I can work in partnership with you to develop your plans at both an organisational level and / or a functional level.
REVIEW & AUDIT
-
How effective is your current fundraising?
-
Are you maximising your return on investment from these activities?
-
Do you have the right people and resources in place to achieve your fundraising goals?
I can support you to answer these questions, helping you to look back and understand the current landscape before you look forwards.
Hands on fundraising
Do you need help raising funds from Trusts and Foundations or getting a big bid written? I can provide support with:
-
Developing your ‘case for support’ the key document for successful proposals
-
Identifying Trusts and Foundations who may support your cause through comprehensive prospect research
-
Bid writing and drafting funding applications
-
Creating work plans and tools to monitor progress and performance
​
Over the course of my career I have raised in excess of £5.7 million for charitable causes. I have extensive experience of raising funds from Trusts and Foundations securing three figure, multi year grants from a range of funders including the Garfield Weston Foundation, National Lottery Community Fund, London Councils and City Bridge Trust.

ROCKET FUEl
-
Do you have a particular project, organisational goal or event that requires some fundraising 'rocket fuel'?
-
Would you like to develop and launch a new service or activity?
​
I have experience of bringing new projects and services to market, providing time limited and on-going support depending on your organisation's needs.
MENTAL HEALTH FIRST AID
​I am passionate about better understanding mental health and being mindful about how our personal and professional lives can impact on our health. In 2019 it is my ambition to turn this passion into practice by becoming a Mental Health First Aider; the first step in my master plan. Watch this space (and my blog) to see how this ambition unfolds. In the meantime you can learn more about Mental Health First Aid by visiting MHFA England.
