Testimonials
“Funding Matters came to us on a long-term contract, following their construction of an in-depth audit and feasibility study, to help us professionalise and expand our fundraising operation so that we might increase our fundraising capability and success. The way we do things here has been transformed, we launched a very successful international appeal, and the consultancy has generated substantial net profit of over £1 million new money. This was not a risk-free commitment on our part but it has paid dividends and I am now confident of our long-term ability to sustain this success.„

“Christine lent crucial support to the National Library. She helped to establish fundraising as a core Library function, proved a powerful motor in driving new fundraising programmes, and acted as a mentor and guide to newly appointed fundraising staff. Her experience, judgement and energy have been indispensable, and without them we would have made slower and less successful progress. „

“I turned to Funding Matters half way through our four year £35 million Appeal to seek advice on progress to date and ways in which we might improve our fundraising capability. I was pleased to receive a timely and perceptive mid term audit which has provided me with a very useful framework for achieving success. „

“Our challenge was to set up a fundraising, marketing and media department from scratch and to make this successful very quickly. We could not have done this without the direction, energy and professionalism of Funding Matters. Christine's focused approach, her honesty and understanding of what we as a charity stand for and are trying to achieve, meant that she rapidly became a trusted member of my senior team for the duration of the consultancy. Christine has now finished working with us, but has left behind an established department which is now an integral part of St John's charitable business. She also left us with over £700k fundraising net profit, which proved our decision to invest in this initiative was a calculated but correct risk. „

“Funding Matters produced a report which was instrumental in helping us secure over £400k investment in Welsh sport. Their long experience of sports sponsorship and marketing at national level lent validation and depth to the pitch. „
