Services

Business Planning Cycle

We provide a range of different services – all of which are designed to support you throughout your business planning cycle.

Through our research services we can help you gather develop project ideas and gather ‘evidence of need’ to support your business planning ideas. This can take the form of through feasibility studies, consultations with target stakeholder groups or other types of research. We also carry out a range of research and development projects for and with our clients.

Through our work on resources we can support with you to strengthen your organisation, by providing help with business planning, funding strategy, fundraising and by capacity building your staff and board members through a range of training services. We provide most of our training through our learning portal, The Good Ideas Institute. We can also help you to ‘translate’ your face to face training into a blended learning format to market through our the Institute.

 

"Quality Standards

Sue has a vast amount of experience within the charitable sector and it was very evident early on during our working relationship that we could learn from her knowledge and experience. Sue was regularly able to share best practice and her wisdom, which only helped us achieve the Invest in Volunteers Award in good time.

From minute one Sue was a pleasure to work with. Sue went above and beyond her supervisory role to ensure that we felt supported throughout the process. If we ever had a question Sue would be on hand to help us find the answer. Sue gave a lot of her time to try and truly understand our organisation and volunteers. This enabled her to provide well thought-out recommendations on how we can improve our Volunteer Programme moving forwards. Following the completion of the Investors in Volunteers Award, Sue has stayed in regular contact and has always made herself available to provide support when needed. This demonstrates that Sue really cares about her role and to making a positive impact within the charitable sector.

Having the Investing in Volunteers Award has provided a renewed confidence that we are working to best practice in all aspects of volunteer management. The Everton Family are proud of our long list of firsts. Indeed, in this instance we are the first Football Foundation to achieve the prestigious Investors in Volunteers Award.

I would work with Sue again at the drop of a hat and cannot recommend her more highly.In choosing to work with Sue you will be choosing a person who is honest, trustworthy, dedicated, and passionate about making a positive difference."
