The list is likely to be of particular interest to smaller or newer charities. Director
Simon George explained: “in our experience, smaller charities often have the greatest
need for external advice and support, yet they are frequently disadvantaged when
it comes to accessing the help they need. This is frustrating for all concerned 
as, very often, a little bit of help can make a great difference to a small organisation.

 

 

“We have put this list together in response to the many requests we get from smaller
charities for advice in winning external funding to pay for our support. Over the
years, about 15% of our work has been funded externally, so it is a very practical
resource, which we are happy to make available via our website to groups needing
fundraising consultancy.

 

 

Funders on the list range from charitable trusts, to lottery and statutory funding
bodies. The latest addition is Business Link, which in many parts of the UK will
pay for 50% of external assignments, provided the charity in question is also a 
limited company and that the consultant is listed on the National Business Link 
Register of Consultants.

 

 

Wootton George Consulting themelves are currently conducting assignments on behalf
of two charities, part-funded by Business Link, as Simon George is on the National
Register.
