Our coalition coordination service, helps coalitions of like-minded charities to join together to have a stronger voice and impact.
Bringing charities together to campaign on shared policy goals shows unity and clarity of purpose, gives credibility to proposed policies and can bring together the unique different strengths of lots of organisations. However, building strong and impactful charity coalitions also takes time, trust and excellent communications.
Through strategic and an aligned approach, our coalition coordination, leads charity coalitions to ensure there is clarity of purpose, messaging and planning, and that all the strengths of the members’ organisations are maximised. From bringing members together to agree policies and develop strategy, to supporting the day-to-day delivery and management of activities, we help coalitions to build momentum and achieve change.
Other benefits of working in coalition as described by the NCVO.
Principle are skilled at navigating the challenges of coalition working, proving themselves to be highly organised, flexible and professional at all times.
