Testimonials

Charity Fundraising Ltd were very professional and flexible in their approach, maximised the usage of paid-time, and offered some very useful input into presenting our project to our target funder in the most effective way.

—Gareth Owen, Chief Executive, Volunteer Centre Westminster

Peter came over yesterday and spent several hours going over two bids with two MiNet members, three rota staff and myself. I have spoken to each person individually since and we were very appreciative of the support that was provided and acknowledge the usefulness. This will definitely contribute towards the effectiveness of how we develop and finalise, future and present bids respectfully.

—Anthony Salla, MiNet Coordinator

I just wanted to say again a MASSIVE thank you Peter for all your support and hard work planning & delivering your workshops yesterday and helping make our first ever conference such a success! Your workshops were very well received and lots of positive feedback! Thank you again.

Caring, knowlegeable, and very professional.

the combination of experience, knowledge and input was good value for money

We received a high quality personal and professional service.  Meetings were focussed and kept to a minimum with prompt follow though by email. We welcomed the mix of expertise and experience with practical good advice. Excellent value for money. We would use Charity Fundraising again and have no hesitation in recommending them to others. Indeed we have!

—Anne Pleasant, MillRace IT (social enterprise subsidiary of InterAct Chelmsford)

Professional, approachable and helpful.

The tender would not have looked and read as well without the involvement of Sarah and I feel very satisfied that in working together, we were able to do everything that can possibly be done to win the contract.

—Audrey Lynas, Independent Living Association

Thanks Graham...you've certainly got us off to a flying start...lots of fingers crossed.

Sarah Owen's help was pivotal in our winning three bids, each for five-year contracts, with Suffolk County Council Sensory Services.  The highest scoring bid was 94.5% of the available scoring marks - which we understand may be the highest ever achievement.

—Ian Finch,Suffolk Deaf Association

I sourced Charity Fundraising and commissioned them to identify funding opportunities. I am happy to say that we were successful in our applications and the return on investment is great! I would recommend Charity Fundraising to any non-profit or community organisation who need expert advise and fundraising skills from a team of professionals who can get the job done! With Charity Fundraising, you get results!
