Third sector consultancy that puts every pound where it counts

Senior product and digital leadership for charities, housing associations and VCSE organisations. Stop funding work that won't land, and show trustees and funders the results.

Funder scrutiny, trustee governance and stretched teams mean every hour has to be justified to someone. We scope work to those constraints, and we're as comfortable recommending you stop something as start it.

Most third sector consultancy ends in a report. Ours ends in decisions. The Product Review gives your senior team and trustees an honest read on a digital service, a new programme or a stalled transformation, with a clear recommendation on what to fund, what to pause and what to stop. If you want help seeing it through, Product Leadership puts a director inside your team, month to month, so you are never locked into a contract that outlasts the grant.

We have worked with housing providers, health charities and community programmes, and with the people they serve. Where a decision needs the voice of service users, residents or patients, that research runs through Participation Studio, our research studio, using ethical recruitment and accessible methods. Payment can be phased to suit grant cycles where that helps.

Where we usually come in

A roadmap bigger than the budget
Commitments made to funders, staff and service users all compete for the same small team.
Spend focused where it counts
Digital projects that stall
Good intentions, a supplier, and a launch that keeps moving right.
Services live sooner
Not hearing from service users
Decisions get made about people rather than with them.
Services people actually use

One offer, two steps

Start with the review. Stay on if it is useful.
