Member of the Institute of Fundraising
Suzanne is incredibly knowledgeable on the charity world and turned us from a fledgling organisation into to a very professional, organised, compliant charity. She brought a wealth of experience in corporate partnerships, helping us build stronger, more strategic relationships with businesses, opening up new opportunities for funding, joint initiatives, and long-term partnerships. She left us way better equipped for the challenges ahead. Couldn’t recommend her services higher.

Testimonials
It is my pleasure to recommend Georgina. During our time working together—representing two complex global organisations—she demonstrated a unique combination of expertise, experience, and stakeholder engagement skills. What sets her apart is her ability to handle intricate discussions with clarity and efficiency, all while building trust and cultivating meaningful, authentic relationships. I have enjoyed working with Georgina and she is a true asset to any team or organisation.

Suzanne has been an incredible Trustee since the very beginning, and her input and support over the past 10 years has been invaluable. Her fundraising expertise and innovative ideas, especially during recent challenging financial climates, have played a key role in helping our charity raise nearly £1,000,000. We are incredibly proud and grateful to have her as part of our team.
