1. Performance Measurement & Strategy

KPI Selection & Definition

Identify the most meaningful Key Performance Indicators aligned with your organisation’s objectives. We collaborate with stakeholders to define metrics that genuinely reflect performance, guide strategy, and track progress effectively.

KPI Monitoring & Alerts

Set up reliable systems to monitor and report on KPIs in real time. I design dashboards, automated reports, and alert mechanisms that enable timely responses to changes in performance and emerging opportunities.

Impact Measurement for Charities

Support charities in defining clear outcomes, indicators, and measurement frameworks. This includes theory-of-change alignment, data collection planning, and reporting structures that demonstrate impact to funders.

2. Data Preparation & Quality Management

Data Cleaning & Preparation

Ensure your data is accurate, consistent, and ready for analysis. We handle duplicates, missing values, inconsistencies, and much more, so you can base decisions on reliable information. Where in-house data capacity is limited, we provide flexible and last-minute support to ensure important projects are delivered effectively.

Data Quality Audits

Assess your existing data sources and processes to highlight gaps, risks, and opportunities. We provide practical recommendations on improving data accuracy, documentation, and collection methods. Theory of change impact measurement is reliant on quality data collection, and therefore audits of existing and future data processes are extremely important.

Lightweight Data Integration

Combine data from multiple sources, including spreadsheets, online tools, CRM exports, finance systems, and feedback forms, into a single structure suitable for analysis. Ideal for organisations without technical infrastructure.

3. Reporting, Dashboards & Visualisation

Power BI Dashboard Development

As a Power BI dashboard developer based in the UK, we can transform complex data into clean, interactive dashboards tailored to your needs. Includes documentation and training so your team can update and maintain them independently.

Excel & Google Sheets Reporting

Build robust, user-friendly reporting tools using the spreadsheets your team already relies on. This can include templates, automated calculations, data validation, and dynamic charts. Take a look at our free Excel reporting tools.

Data Visualisation

Create clear visual explanations of trends, performance, or research findings ideal for board papers, funding bids, presentations, and stakeholder communications. Or more complex and creative information design/data visualisations for publications and marketing.

4. Analytics & Insight Generation

Revenue Forecasting

Produce data-driven forecasts using historical trends and simple statistical models. Models can incorporate economic indicators such as GDP and CPI where appropriate.

Descriptive & Diagnostic Analysis

Data analytics for charities can answer questions like What’s happening?, Why is it happening?, and Where are the opportunities? by analysing patterns, correlations, and drivers of performance.

Segmentation & Profiling

Identify groups within your donors, service users, or supporters to help tailor services, campaigns, or communications. Donor segmentation analysis can be vital for funding strategies.

Supporter Journey Analysis

Map and quantify how users move through your services or supporter funnel to reveal bottlenecks, drop-off points, and opportunities for improvement.

Analytics Project Management

Data support for non-profits can include managing data-related projects end-to-end: scoping, data acquisition, timeline management, stakeholder communication, and final delivery.

5. AI & Emerging Technology Advisory

AI Opportunity Assessment

Help demystify AI and identify realistic, ethical, and cost-effective use cases for your organisation, without over-engineering or hype. This includes examples such as AI-assisted drafting of reports, emails, or funding applications; AI tools for summarisation; and chatbots for FAQs using no-code platforms.

AI Risk & Ethics Review

Highlight key considerations around data privacy, bias, governance, and transparency, especially important for charities handling sensitive or personal data.

AI Vendor & Tool Evaluation

Advise on selecting AI-powered products, ensuring you understand capabilities, limitations, and hidden costs before making commitments.

6. Open-Source & Geospatial Data Guidance

Open-Source Data Advisory

Recommend free, high-quality, public datasets that can add value to your analysis, an often overlooked resource for charities. Often these data-points can be included in funding bid reporting templates and add statistical credibility to your goals. Examples include ONS datasets, people-centred economic and demographic indicators, and public sentiment or social media datasets.

Open-Source Geospatial Data Support

Help you identify and use geospatial datasets to produce maps with ONS geographical boundaries, local authority datasets, environmental, accessibility, transport, and postcode-level data.

7. Automation & Efficiency

Process Automation

Streamline repetitive data tasks such as data cleaning, reporting, or merging files, freeing your team to focus on strategic work.

Workflow Simplification

Review your current reporting and data workflows to identify inefficiencies and remove redundant steps or systems.

Template & Tool Creation

Build easy-to-use templates that staff can use independently for reporting, impact measurement, analysis, or data collection. We find that small organisations benefit from ready-made tools as they can make it easier to feed data to charity Power BI dashboards.

8. Training, Coaching & Capacity Building

Excel Upskilling

Teach best practices on formulas, pivot tables, data validation, charts, and efficiency tricks.

Data Literacy Training & Workshops

Improve organisation-wide understanding of what data can and cannot do, helping non-technical staff make informed, confident decisions.

Dashboard & Reporting Coaching

Support individuals or teams in learning how to manage their dashboards, improve visuals, and interpret data correctly.
