Offering free advice and support to charities and not-for-profit organisations in Buckinghamshire
The Clare Foundation is a charity working collaboratively with other voluntary sector organisations to assist them to become more efficient and effective in all areas of their work. Through our various programmes and services, we strive to help all charitable organisations within Buckinghamshire.
The Clare Foundation promotes best practice, the use of established business methods, expertise and good governance to help charities meet their own expectations. The Foundation works closely with each charity to help them define the work or strategy that needs to be developed. Our position and purpose is to provide the best possible bespoke support for the individual, Board, Senior Management Team and/or charity to accomplish their objectives no matter how long it takes.
We also support charities through seminars, workshops, networking and Charity Leader Forums that provide guidance and support.
