Although price is important, we believe in good service and long term business
relationships. Whether your requirements are an improved media and marketing
presence or training and development of staff, event planning or income
generation strategies, it is all about working with the right kind of people

Coming from a range of disciplines and specialities, all of the
Associates aligned to us, are people that David Philpott
has enjoyed working with over many years and who
share his values. It is our sincerely held belief
that it is better to do business with people we like
and whom we trust, than with
those we do not know.

 
 

Both non executive directors of public bodies and charity trustees have a duty to ensure that
the organisations they serve have proper and effective governance in place.

We offer a comprehensive audit of governance and risk management, including a review of
indemnities and insurances against industry-specific regulatory frameworks and best practice
guidance. We help prioritise areas of vulnerability and work with directors and trustees so as
to ensure that all reasonable steps are taken to eradicate both corporate and personal liability.

 

 

Governance Fundraising Media and Marketing Compliance Business

Just because an organisation is public service or charitably focused, does not make it any less of a business.

By combining good governance and proper risk management with business flare and acumen in pursuit of
beneficial objectives, we have the expertise to deliver tailor-made solutions to the not-for-profit sector.

In recent years David Philpott has presided over exponential fundraising income
growth amounting to many millions of pounds and with his team of Associates brings
expertise ranging from simple trust fundraising strategies through to entire campaign
branding and management solutions. This allows smaller and medium sized charities that
do not have a large fundraising department to outsource to us, thereby freeing them up to focus
on and fulfil their mission.

Governance Fundraising Media and Marketing Compliance Business

If there is a secret to our success it is that we take a holistic approach to all we do.
We believe that it is not just about quick wins but rather building a sustainable and
ongoing relationship with the public, the business community, service commissioners
and legislators. We do this by raising the profile of charities and businesses through
carefully crafted press and media campaigns, using all platforms - newspapers,
magazines, radio and television. We have access to preferential advertising rates but
always seek to secure optimum free publicity for our clients by generating interesting
news stories that will be picked up by the regional and national media. Within a modest budget we
can typically develop a 12 week media strategy. We also offer our clients a reputational risk
management service on a retained basis.

With extensive experience in the field of pre hospital care, we can review clinical
governance arrangements, indemnity insurances and service level agreements.
We explore low cost options and make recommendations so that executive and non
executive board members can make informed decisions about the level of clinical
governance they need to have in place in order to minimise corporate and
personal exposure.

We are also able to offer to the wider health community the preparatory work and ongoing
support necessary to secure and maintain Care Quality Commission registration.

Governance Fundraising Media and Marketing Compliance Business

Just as we believe that not for profit organisations need to be run as businesses, for the same
reason we are committed to the ideal that corporate social responsibility, a well trained and
motivated workforce and a clear business vision are all key drivers in the quest for
commercial profits.

If your business feels like it is stuck in a rut and needs re-energising, we can bring objectivity to
the table and help you find cost-effective ways of re-engaging with your staff and building new
links to existing and lapsed clients. Our team of associates provides a one-stop solution for PR,
cause related marketing initiatives and workplace based or off-site training events.

In a fast-moving, ever-changing world, the places where you
do business or deliver your service can change in a matter
of months. Without effective strategic planning you will be
unable to prepare for the changes and challenges that may
be just around the corner.

We can provide any level of service from a simple scoping
exercise where we help you identify your broad ambitions,
right through to “visioning” days, stakeholder engagements
and the implementation and marketing of your
new Strategic Plan.
