Philanthropy Advice.

Members of staff at the Foundation

Offering expert local philanthropy advice.

Perhaps you’ve been thinking for a while about giving back to your local community but aren’t sure what route to take. Perhaps your family, business or charitable trust is passionate about helping others and is ready to take a more strategic approach. Or you might have come into some money through an inheritance or selling an asset and want to make sure it’s used in a way that will have a positive impact on the county you call home.

 “In recent years we have helped hundreds of people to give effectively to the causes and places that are important to them. Often, that means supporting people to better understand and navigate complex issues, such as homelessness or mental health, to ensure their giving has the greatest impact possible. We also regularly work in partnership with professional advisors so any philanthropy is embedded in a client’s wider financial planning. But, of course, the real magic happens when grants are made and a donor experiences first-hand the life-changing work taking place in our communities every day. Knowing that was enabled by their giving is very special – and it motivates our team every day.”
