Unlock your charity’s potential

We helped one of our charity clients grow from £500k to £1 million turnover in three years.

With a strategic approach and creative content, our supporter communications and campaigns unlocked this charity’s potential and doubled its impact in the Middle East.

Over the last year, we inspired their audience to give almost £400,000 which is directly helping people affected by the Gaza/Israel conflict.

Trusts and foundations fundraising 

Raising funds from trusts and foundations is more important than ever as costs rise. But putting in those applications can be overly technical and time-consuming for charities.

That’s why we offer a dedicated team to prepare tailored applications to the right trusts for you.

Communications and campaigns

Regular communication is vital for growing and keeping a strong supporter base. Through Better Story, you can draw on the expertise of a whole senior communications team for the price of one employee.

We can work with you to devise and deliver a supporter communications plan for 12 months, with fundraising campaigns part of the big picture.

This was achieved with a combination of very good prospect research and strong written applications, leading to income from new trusts, some of which was multi-year. They were easy to work with, and listened and adapted well to our needs.”
