results that her imaginative approach and focus deliver.
Heather Wood, CEO, Rainbow Trust Children's Charity.
“We are lucky to find Philippa. Her honesty and integrity matches well with the
professionalism she applies. She shows she looks closely at the nuances of our business so
that, in making funding applications on our behalf, our case and credibility are demonstrated
clearly and effectively. Not an easy task for such a project which isn't always clearly defined.
I would highly recommend her business skills to anyone “
Ken Radford, General Manager, People & Gardens CIC.
“Philippa completed a community fundraising research brief to support our fundraising
strategy for a capital campaign. Philippa fully engaged with our organisation and the ethos of
our campaign and completed the work on time despite a very tight timescale. I would have
no hesitation in recommending Philippa as a fundraising consultant and would happily work
with her again should the opportunity arise.”
Amanda Denham, Trust and Grants Manager, Exeter Royal Academy for Deaf Education
“Philippa headed up the Beach Fundraising Section that supported the inception of
Lifeguarding within the RNLI. She was inspirational, dedicated and fun! I would recommend
her services to anyone.”
