    Fundraising can be a lonely road. There are few people, even within an organisation, who understand the nuances and frustrations of the process – to say nothing of the unrivalled high that a successful ask brings.

    Sometimes we just need someone to talk to, to bounce ideas off, or offload about a challenge that we are experiencing. Sometimes we need to explode – safely – before an impartial (with a little smidge of sympathy) audience, so that we can walk back into the workplace, secure in the knowledge that we will not be arrested for cold-blooded murder before the end of the working day.

    Here’s where the team at Words that Count comes in. We offer a range of training and mentoring packages, designed to take your resource mobilisation to the next level.
