Practical, Strategic Support for Charity Leaders

Leading a charity is rewarding—but it’s also demanding. From governance and compliance to funding, operations, finance and volunteers; charity leaders must juggle multiple responsibilities while staying focused on their mission.

At CharityShift Consulting, we understand these challenges because we’ve been there, spinning those plates and trying not to drop any. Our aim is to help charities navigate change, improve efficiency, and build resilience.

We work alongside charity leaders and boards to provide:
✔ Strategic guidance to help organisations plan for the future
✔ Operational and governance support to strengthen leadership and compliance
✔ Process and policy development to ensure charities run smoothly
✔ Digital and communications expertise to enhance engagement and efficiency

With a flexible pricing model that ensures accessibility for charities of all sizes, we are here to lighten the load, fill the gaps, and help charities thrive, not just survive.

Who are we?
CharityShift Consulting was founded by Liz Thorne, a charity leader with over 15 years' experience as a CEO, alongside trusteeship at both general and chair level.

With a deep understanding of the unique complexities of the UK voluntary sector, Liz has navigated organisations through challenging transitions, funding pressures, and sector-wide change. She recognises the ‘perfect storm’ charities have faced in the pandemic and post-pandemic era, bringing a grounded, empathetic, and solutions-focused approach to every organisation she supports.
