Our partners

We work with the following specialists (and do not receive payment from any of them for referrals):

The Arts Fundraisers

We work closely with our sister organisation, The Arts Fundraisers, who fundraise for artists and arts organisations. If you have a charitable structure and your work combines the arts and vulnerable people, we will talk to you about which organisation / team is the best fit for you.

Design

Erica Smith – Wordsmith Design
From logos to annual reports, Erica has been key in helping us get both our and our clients’ designs right. She has over 30 years’ experience since graduating in Typography and Graphic Communication. Erica specialises in using clarity, creativity and colour to produce effective, appropriate and ethical design solutions.

Web Design

Nick Weekes
Nick supports our clients to build or update their websites.

Accountancy

Yvonne O’Connor – Framptons Accountants
We use Yvonne at Framptons in Bexhill for our own accounts and for reviews of budget information for clients’ complex grants (e.g ACE National Portfolio, or Cultural Recovery Funds). Yvonne has experience as a trustee of arts organisations and charities, and understands the Arts Council’s processes in a way many other accountants do not.

Research and Evaluation – Nick Hopkins Consultancy

Nick is a social researcher and consultant who specialises in detailed research and evaluations of work around poverty, financial and social exclusion. We work with Nick where his skillset adds value to our team.
