Established fundraising specialist and coach Richard Felton will be presenting ‘How to improve success in raising funds’, the third in a series of masterclasses aimed at charity trustees and managers being staged by the specialist Charities team at chartered accountants Lovewell Blake.
During the session, Mr Felton will look at how the cost of living crisis and increased operating costs are impacting charities, and will offer tips on how to improve success in raising funds from charitable trusts and foundations in a difficult and competitive climate.
In a career spanning more than 30 years, Mr Felton has built a reputation within the charitable sector for fundraising leadership across a broad range of charitable causes, as well as for training and mentoring charities in trust fundraising. His fundraising consultancy Felton Fundraising raises more than £2.5 million a year for charities working throughout the county and across the UK.
“We are very fortunate to have Richard leading our latest masterclass, as he is the acknowledged leader in trust and foundation fundraising in East Anglia, and one of the top charity fundraisers in the country,” said Mark Proctor, lead partner for Lovewell Blake’s Charities and Schools team.
“In one of the most challenging economic climates for charities in many years, improving the success rate in fundraising has to be a major priority for all charities, so this latest masterclass in our series is a vital one for charity managers and trustees to attend.”
‘How to improve success in raising funds’ takes place on Tuesday 20th September at 4.30pm, at Lovewell Blake’s office on Broadland Business Park. Attendance is free, but places must be reserved in advance. Find more details, or reserve your place here.
