Our practices
Advisory
Strategic advice for organisations and leaders shaping meaningful change — rigorous, tailored, and built on real experience.
Discuss an opportunityWe usually meet our clients at moments of transition — a new mandate, a major funding decision, an organisation that has outgrown its original design. What they need is not a framework. It is someone who has been there, thinks clearly, and knows how to turn that clarity into action.
What we work on
- 01
Philanthropy & giving strategy
Whether you're a first-generation philanthropist figuring out what you want your giving to stand for, or an established foundation ready to shape your next decade — we help you get clear, get strategic, and get moving. We work across the full spectrum, from impact thesis development and grant portfolio design to helping you explore blended finance and impact investment structures.
- 02
Strategic programme management
We help clients design and deliver complex, multi-stakeholder initiatives as well as smaller, bespoke programmes — from concept through to impact reporting. We are experienced in convening senior actors across the private, philanthropic and non-profit sectors around a shared agenda.
- 03
Social enterprise & non-profit support
We work with social ventures, accelerators and delivery organisations at critical moments: sharpening your impact framework, building fundraising assets that actually speak to the funders you want, or developing the strategy that takes you to the next level. If you're doing important work and struggling to articulate it — we can help.
- 04
Organisational build & start-up
Got an idea for a new impact initiative, programme or organisation? We've built things from scratch many times over — strategy, governance, operational foundations — and we know how to bring structure to ambiguity without losing momentum.
