It’s been a pleasure to work alongside and for some tremendous individuals and causes..

Sarah has had a unique vantage point on the charity sector, its challenges and opportunities, and in consulting she has been up close and personal with a variety of different causes. This makes an excellent blend. She now has a 12 year+ track record of successfully helping charities with their digital media know-how and plans and is a real asset to any charity wishing to make absolutely sure that its online presence is well-planned, targeted and executed. And as Virtual Promise 2008 shows, many of them still desperately need this kind of direction and support.” March 22, 2011

“We owe great thanks to Sarah for the insight and ideas that she has brought to Odelay.  As far as recommendations go, I can’t praise her enough. She is genuinely big hearted, smart and ballsy.

We are grateful to have Sarah as an close ally and friend of Odelay. Our biggest regret is not having the means to employ her full-time.” December 1, 2011

Heath Kane, Founding Partner, Odelay

I was fortunate to work directly with Sarah at CAF. She drove forward the development of CAF’s online presence and services. Sarah is a good networker and keeps herself up to date with new trends and developments. She is a creative thinker, who invests in research and ensures that those around her are kept well informed. She works hard to influence and encourage all stakeholders in projects she manages. Sarah produced a wide range of project proposals which were successfully developed and implemented for the benefit of CAF and the charitable sector.” April 19, 2011

Jennifer Byers CBE, Executive Director, Donor Servies, Charities Aid Foundation

I hired Sarah to conduct a review of our online branding, covering the presence of the whole organisation. We have a number of distinct projects, all with different levels of capacity, and so I asked Sarah to look over our web output, identify problems and suggest solutions. Right from the start she gave me confidence that she knew her business and understood exactly what we wanted. She was prompt, thorough and honest. Her feedback and suggestions were invaluable (even though, sadly, I have still not been able to implement much of it). For my own part I could have been much easier to contact and approach, but Sarah was never less than professional and personable. I recommend her highly.” February 10, 2011

Michael Grimes, Head of Digital Media, Citizenship Foundation

Sarah has unrivalled experience in planning, implementing and managing online solutions for UK nonprofits. At CAF she championed the need to build online fundraising services for UK charities, and then successfully built them. A very early innovator in this area, she has championed the strategic use of new media by charities for over 10 years, and had a hand in many key developments. For example, she chaired the Institute of Fundraising’s voluntary committee that overhauled its code of practice on electronic fundraising, and was a voluntary adviser to Charity Technology Trust, another innovator in the online charity world.

She has excellent contacts within the UK and international charity/nonprofit sectors and has a very good reputation for her focus on strategy, and not just the technology.

She is a fine consultant, listening, assessing large amounts of data, and synthesising the inputs into practical, well-informed advice. Just as importantly, she is passionate about ensuring that charities make the most of these new and evolving technologies. I have no hesitation in recommending her.” September 28, 2007

Sarah combines an entrepreneurial perspective with the rigour and planning required to deliver sustainable innovation. She is a keen observer of market trends and an effective communicator. She is also a pleasure to work with.” September 18, 2008
