“Considering the difficulty of the charitable cause and the limited number of trusts we can request support from I think that the Hospital and the whole Anglican Community should send you their thanks. Well done.”  John Cherry, Chief Executive, St Luke's Hospital for the Clergy

Fees for fundraising consultants vary enormously, anything from £150 to £2000 per day depending on the experience and track record of the consultant, and the complexity of the project. So it pays to be certain about what you want a consultant to do and define this clearly in a brief. And don’t be tempted into a commission-only payment arrangement. These can deter donors from supporting you and usually do not reflect the level of work undertaken by the consultant. What’s more it’s not always possible to attribute every donation or gift to the efforts of a specific fundraiser and this can cause conflict.
