FREE skilled support sessions for charities in Wales

Running a charity can mean making difficult decisions, managing constant demands and planning for an uncertain future - often without the capacity, support or skills you might need.

Our free 90 minute skilled support sessions will give you the space to step back, talk through a specific challenge with an experienced charity leader, and identify practical next steps.

No lengthy application. No big consultancy project. Just focused, practical support to help you work out what to do next.

Nicola Russell-Brooks

You bring the problem. 

We’ll help you work through it.


Each session is a free, confidential 90 minute conversation with Nicola Russell-Brooks, Cranfield Trust Wales Manager, who brings 37 years’ experience leading and developing in the third sector, including experience as a member of the National Lottery Community Fund Wales, alongside extensive mentoring experience.


90 minutes could change what happens next!


What’s your challenge?

We need to raise more income

Is your income under pressure? Are you too reliant on one funder? Are there opportunities you're overlooking?

Explore realistic ways to diversify your income and strengthen your approach to generating funds.

29 September & 6 October: 09:00 | 10:30 | 12:30 | 14:00

I don't have time to do everything

When everything comes through you, it’s difficult to focus on what really matters. Explore what only you need to do, what could be delegated, what your board should own and what could be stopped, and identify practical ways to create more capacity.

13 & 29 October: 09:00 | 10:30 | 12:30 | 14:00

We can't find or keep the right trustees

Is your board working as effectively as it could? Are you missing key skills or struggling to engage and retain trustees?

Take a fresh look at your board, identify skills and gaps, and consider what your charity needs from its trustees for the future.

5 & 12 November: 09:00 | 10:30 | 12:30 | 14:00

What happens when our funding ends

If a major grant is coming to an end, don’t wait until the funding runs out to think about what happens next.

Explore different funding scenarios, the implications for your services and staff, alternative income and the decisions you need to make now.

19 & 24 November: 09:00 | 10:30 | 12:30 | 14:00

Archwiliwch ffyrdd realistig o arallgyfeirio eich incwm a chryfhau eich dull o godi arian.

Pan fydd popeth yn mynd drwy eich dwylo chi, mae'n anodd canolbwyntio ar yr hyn sy'n wirioneddol bwysig. Archwiliwch yr hyn sydd angen i chi ei wneud yn unig, yr hyn y gellid ei ddirprwyo, yr hyn y dylai eich bwrdd ysgwyddo cyfrifoldeb amdano a'r hyn y gellid rhoi'r gorau iddo, a nodwch ffyrdd ymarferol o greu mwy o gapasiti.

A yw eich bwrdd yn gweithio mor effeithiol ag y gallai? A oes diffyg sgiliau allweddol gennych, neu a ydych yn cael trafferth denu a chadw ymddiriedolwyr? Cymerwch olwg newydd ar eich bwrdd, nodwch sgiliau a bylchau, ac ystyriwch beth sydd ei angen ar eich elusen gan ei hymddiriedolwyr ar gyfer y dyfodol.
