About

The charity sector has endured major challenges over the past year, with funding for small charities plummeting by an alarming £4.6 billion. Despite these difficulties, our passion and dedication remain unwavering. In just 12 months, I have secured over £100,000 in funding for my clients, many of whom began working with me as recently as April.

Raise to Rise was launched at the beginning of 2024 with the mission to make fundraising support accessible and affordable for new and smaller charities. With 96% of UK-registered charities considered small, there is a significant gap in available support, a gap I have experienced firsthand. This was the driving force behind Raise to Rise.

The charity sector has faced significant challenges over the past 12 months, with funding for small charities decreasing by a shocking £4.6 billion. Despite this turbulence, my passion and commitment remain resolute. In just 12 months, I have successfully secured over £100,000 in funding for my clients, many of whom joined as recently as April.

Now, 1 year in, I’m honoured to have been named ‘One to Watch’ at the 2024 Woman Who Solopreneur Awards and named one of the iAlso100 for 2025 by f:Entrepreneur. Furthermore, I take great pride in mentoring a Fundraising Assistant, who joined me in May. Together, we work with incredible charities across the UK, ranging from those serving older people in West Yorkshire to a community hub in Gloucestershire, and support for individuals with acquired head injuries in Oxfordshire.
