About Us
Established in 1998, our mission is to offer effective strategic and fundraising support to UK based not-for-profit organisations, through consultancy and implementation.
The company was established by Directors Gill Wootton and Simon George, two longstanding charity professionals, with extensive track records in fundraising and charity management.
Today, our professional team offers an extensive list of services to charities and other not-for-profit organisations, with on average 20 clients at any time. Each of our consultants has relevant experience averaging over 15 years.
Some 69% of our work comes to us either by recommendation or as repeat business from satisfied clients, who choose to use us again - evidence we believe of our effectiveness.
Independent research conducted through Business Link found that our clients value the strong relationships we develop with them, as well as our commitment to integrity.
We are an NCVO Approved Consultancy, as well as being Corporate Members of the Association of Fundraising Consultants and individual Members of the Institute of Fundraising, to whose Code of Conduct we subscribe.
Our Mission
Our mission is to enable our clients to grow their organisations and to develop sustainable funding streams, by taking a planned approach to fundraising and income generation and by helping them to access funding streams, such as government grants, charitable trusts, lottery funds, corporate support, individual giving and social enterprise.
Our Vision
Our vision is of a sustainable not-for-profit sector, where all charities and organisations will have sufficient resources to pursue their missions effectively, without the distraction of funding problems, lack of core income or short- term funding arrangements. It is a vision where all not-for-profit organisations, regardless of their field of work, client group, size or location, can access high quality advice and support to achieve this, according to their individual needs.
Aims
We aim to be an organisation which:
- Delivers effective advice and support exclusively to not-for-profit organisations
- Consistently provides value for money across all assignments, regardless of the nature of the work, the client or the consultant employed
- Can demonstrate its success by achieving high levels of repeat business and referrals from satisfied clients
