5 reasons charities get in touch with me
Every charity is different, but I often hear the same challenges.
Here are five of the most common reasons people pick up the phone.
1. Our communications person is leaving
You've built momentum with your communications, but the person leading that work is moving on.
You don't want everything to grind to a halt while you work out what happens next.
I can help maintain momentum, manage key communications activity and support staff taking on new responsibilities.
Typical support: 2–4 days a month
2. We know our communications could be better
You're doing great work, but you're not sure your communications are having the impact they could.
I can review what's working, identify gaps and help you develop a practical communications plan.
Typical support: 3–6 day project
3. We don't have a communications manager
Many charities need communications expertise but don't have the budget for a dedicated role.
I can provide ongoing advice, planning support and an experienced external perspective.
Typical support: 1–2 days a month
4. We need help creating regular content
You have stories to tell, but not enough time to turn them into social media posts, newsletters and campaigns.
I can help create consistent communications using content provided by your team.
Typical support: 2–3 days a month
5. We need support and confidence
Communications is often just one part of someone's role.
I offer mentoring, training and practical support to help charity staff build skills and confidence.
Typical support: tailored to your organisation
Not sure what support you need?
That's completely normal.
Many clients know they need some help but aren't sure exactly what that looks like.
If that sounds familiar, let's have a conversation.
