Giving Solutions
Manage grants with clarity and confidence.
For more than 30 years, we have supported charities, trusts, foundations, government bodies and corporate grantmakers to manage and allocate funding effectively. We bring practical solutions, sector insight and tailored systems expertise to help organisations make their giving transparent, efficient, and impactful.
Managing grants isn’t just about distributing funds - it’s about accountability, clarity and delivering impact.
Our team has decades of experience in grant management and system implementation. We specialise in Blackbaud Grantmaking and complementary tools such as Power BI, working with organisations of all sizes to improve efficiency, reporting, and governance. Our role is simple: to provide practical expertise and responsive support, so you can focus on making a difference.
Our services
Blackbaud Grantmaking
We are the UK’s leading specialists in implementing and supporting Blackbaud Grantmaking, helping organisations tailor the platform to their unique needs. From initial setup to workflow design, integration, and ongoing support, we ensure the system grows with you.
Power BI for grant making
We turn data into decisions. Our team designs ready-to-use dashboards - pipeline, approvals, payments, outcomes - and creates models that combine Blackbaud exports/APIs with other sources. Visualise spend by theme or geography, track milestones and KPIs, and produce trustee-ready packs at a click
Independent advice
As we’ve worked with both funders and recipients, our guidance reflects the realities of grantmaking from every perspective. We advise on best practice, process improvements and system governance, and provide assurance and audit support so donors and trustees can see that funds are used exactly as intended.
