Non-profit organisations
We believe that advising non-profits requires an appreciation of factors over and above those applicable to commercial organisations. In particular it requires an understanding of the special ethos of non-profits, their structure and culture.

About the Non-profit unit
In our unit we recognise that while NPOs have special characteristics and requirements, in many respects they face issues in common with businesses operating for profit. There is clear benefit to our clients both in terms of cost and quality in consolidating our experience and specialist knowledge that comes from a large critical mass of relevant clients.
We recognise that whilst different parts of the non-profit sector have needs which are similar, there may be different emphasis as a result of specific legislation, culture, sector practice or differing activities.
By non-profit organisations (NPOs) we mean all organisations operating on a non-profit basis, that is, they do not distribute profit and usually are governed by a voluntary board.
The published articles section includes some of the we have written for the sector press covering topical issues for non profit organisations We also issue newsletters and regular updates. We also run seminars providing information to help non-profit organisations.
