Find and assess organisations
We identify charities, CICs and grassroots groups that fit your priorities, and look at their track record, governance and capacity before you commit funding.
For Charitable Foundations & Grantmakers
Support for Foundations and Grantmakers
Local knowledge and hands-on support for your grant-making across Liverpool City Region and the North West. We help you choose the right charities, CICs and grassroots groups, work with them once funded and show you what your money achieves.
What We Do
From choosing who to fund to reporting on results.
Site visits
We visit in person to see delivery first-hand, meet the leadership and understand what support the organisation needs.
Mentoring and practical support
Once funded, we work directly with organisations on planning, governance, safeguarding, funding and delivery, so the grant is used well.
Monitoring and impact updates
We track progress against agreed outcomes, raise challenges early and give you clear, plain-English updates on what has been achieved.
Ways to Work With Us
Commission as much or as little as you need.
Foundations can commission anything from a single site visit to ongoing support across several organisations. We agree the scope with you after an initial call.
Single Visit
One organisation, one visit.
An independent site visit and short written summary on an organisation you are considering or already fund.
Assessment
Finding and assessing a shortlist.
We find and assess several organisations against your criteria, visit them and recommend which to support.
Ongoing Support
Across one or more funded organisations.
Mentoring, monitoring and regular impact updates for the length of the grant, across as many organisations as you need.
