We're a small but mighty team of digital experts who are passionate about supporting charities and social enterprises to make a real impact. Our goal is to help charities reach their full potential by offering practical skills training, personalised coaching, and support on all digital projects.
Due to a multitude of reasons, cost of living, funding reductions, and life changes, we came to the decision in February 2024 to cease our work in its current form from April 30th 2024.
The challenges we have faced aren’t dissimilar to so many small start up organisations, it’s tough work and takes a toll. Ultimately the financial and mental health burden became too much.
Created to support charities and social enterprises to develop new digital skills and grow confidence in digital ways of working.
There is an essential skills gap in the social impact space both in the UK and beyond. We work in partnership with organisations from funders to agencies to help strengthen digital capabilities through our practical training, coaching, and project support.
In a short time and working mostly part time we supported 2,000 people through free workshops to gain new digital skills, worked directly with over 30 organisations to improve their ways of working, and partnered with funders to deliver impactful capacity building support.
We continue to support the sector in our own ways.
We believe that digital ways of working are the future, and without them impact organisations will be left behind. We didn't want to close without creating at least some way for you to access the resources we developed.
