How we do it

Since 2009, we have designed nationally recognised programmes, including: 

• Arts Fundraising & Philanthropy: Supported by Arts Council England, we transform the fundraising knowledge, skills, and levels of success of arts organisations through a range of national initiatives including a Fellowship Programme and creating the largest suite of e-learning materials for arts fundraising anywhere in the world.
