Be it programme funding, capital campaigns or endowment and sustainability, our services address all aspects of philanthropy, social investment and charity management, utilising both proven methodologies and the latest innovations.

Our Approach

We believe that fundraising success starts with in-depth planning. We assess the potential amounts that can be raised for your organisation, the timescales and levels of investment required to achieve your goals and develop a reliable plan which is tailored to your specific situation, reflecting both your fundraising potential and your existing resources. Knowing the scope and complexity of your fundraising potential allows us then to work with you in flexible ways to implement a programme which has been validated.

Partners – Not ‘Consultants’…

We bring experience, objectivity, professionalism, a proven track record and a proven Return on Investment. Typically our fees represent between three and eight percent of your fundraising target. We provide a high level service delivered by our principals working in partnership with your team. We do not outsource the work to more junior but expensive people. The people you meet are the people responsible for the delivery of the assignment.

Moreover our approach is based on sustainability and long term growth potential, building your capacity, not reliance. That’s why our services prove to be both effective and cost effective.
