Testimonials
"It has been a real pleasure working with Wootton George Consulting. Their results have been fantastic. As a company, they are very professional, knowledgeable, flexible and easy to work with."
Kate Shaw, Ripple Appeal Manager
"I would be delighted to recommend Lorna and your consultancy to other organisations."
Lynne Farnell, Head of Fundraising, Museum of Science and Industry, Manchester
"Claire’s initial work was focused on developing and implementing our fundraising strategy for our Capital Project to create Graeae’s first home in its 30 year history. It was our most ambitious fundraising campaign to date and with just over £500,000 to raise in less than 12 months, a not inconsiderable challenge. But from the start the working relationship was an easy one and Claire quickly was able to capture the spirit and culture of Graeae’s aspirations for our new building. This understanding of the company’s ethos and her ability to speak Graeae’s “language”, has meant that as our fundraising campaign moves from capital to revenue and training and education projects, we have been able to work swiftly to transform ideas into tangible, well-funded projects. I look forward to continuing our successful and hugely enjoyable relationship."
Judith Kilvington, Executive Director, Graeae Theatre Company, London

"The report enabled the hospice to clearly identify funding opportunities in the short, medium and long term and its recommendations on structure and direction were fully accepted. A number of the recommendations have already been put in place including the recruitment of staff with relevant experience to implement the proposed plans. The hospice has already started to see the positive benefit in terms of increase in revenues and will continue to build on these over the next few years."
