Manager Selection
• Do they offer advice, or not
• Is their proposed strategy fit for your purposes
• Can they explain their process in a manner that you
understand
• Do they have a demonstrable performance record and
“sector heritage”
• Are their fees competitive and transparent
• Are they financially secure - with happy staff..!!
Important questions to ask…..

Summary
• Objective Setting – Be clear in stating your goals and principles; ambiguity is a
recipe for disappointment; Your adviser can help you!
• Risk/Reward – Risk is multi-faceted and dynamic; long term rewards require risk taking
“there is no such thing as a free lunch!”
• Key Asset Classes – Diversification helps to manage volatility – but don’t overdo it!
Long term reserves should have an Equities bias
• Manager Selection – Favour those who can answer your important questions – and
can provide evidence of their capabilities; ask for references…!!

About International Cat Care
• Over the past 56 years International Cat Care
(formerly the Feline Advisory Bureau) and its
veterinary division the International Society of Feline
Medicine, has campaigned for improved care of cats.
• The charity began because of a lack of information
on the care of cats
• To some extent, knowledge
has become our currency

countries
Information for cat professionals
• Cat information not
previously available
• Raising the standard
of boarding catteries
• Advice on breeding
Welfare work
• Large numbers of unowned
cats worldwide with poor
welfare because of a lack of
knowledge, veterinary
training, and general
understanding
• Population control often
inhumane and solutions are
short term
• In many countries vets do not
know how to neuter cats
Welfare
• International Cat Care has
identified the basic principles
that should be considered
when trying to promote the
welfare of the cat.
• The outcome should be
beneficial to the cat
• Sustainable, practical
approach based on best
knowledge
• Seeking long term solutions
Veterinary work
• Pioneered feline medicine, advanced

Feline Medicine and the Journal of

CSR support for welfare work
Allows companies to use us as ‘heart’!
Companies which embrace CSR (corporate social
responsibility) can weave the valuable assistance
into their own business plans and external
communication strategy
Adding ‘heart’
Other ways of working together
• Royalty share on books
• Donation on products sold
• Using our materials (eg calendar or membership) to
encourage buy in for their business
• Helping us to get members/take up on programmes
• Helping them to get more/retain clients or customers
(eg, Cat Friendly Clinic)
• Producing an accreditation which benefits them
• Recognising good products
• Large global companies to individual veterinary clinics
Why be seen along side a charity?
• Companies have a responsibility to be good corporate
citizens
• Working with a charity can make a positive difference to
communities (esp local)
• There is a fit with the company values/subjects
• If companies are similar, people will think more kindly of
one which supports a charity
• Working in a similar field may increase recognition for
both company and charity
• Charities can bring fresh ideas/cutting edge
reputation/innovation/new ways of exploring old
products/new ways of addressing complex challenges
• Charities can bring credibility and show the company to
be ethical and trustworthy
Things charities worry about
• Not being good enough for sponsorship/support
• Lack of mutual trust on mutual goals and objectives
• How to develop long term mutually beneficial
relationships
• Getting lost in corporate speak
• Loss of control/selling out (or being perceived to)
• Reputational damage if company has problems or
brand issues
• Losing supporters because of the perceived activities
of the company
www.gov.uk/charities-working-with-companies-and-professional-fundraisers

objectives and often both parties fail to be explicit
about them right at the beginning of any collaboration.

information

Rick Smith – A short History
• A brief career in the Army
– I enjoyed skiing but not the other aspects of the British Army
• A slightly longer career in Telecommunications (Kingston & COLT)
– I mastered the art of Change Management
– I never really saw the impact of the work I did
• A Career in running/owning my own restaurant
• Finally made the giant leap into Charities
– Environmental charities – lost major contracts to a national charity
and a regional CVS
– Children's charities
– Now Older People
• In my spare time I am an appointed Governor for Southern Health FT and
recently retired as chair of a Community Health and Wellbeing centre in
Warwickshire (looking for my new challenge)
Trading & Why we should all be doing it
Stating the obvious – What is trading and Why should
we trade
• To raise unrestricted income
Or
• Unrestricted surplus from the services we deliver
Charitable Purpose Trading
Pros & Cons of selling what we provide
Pros Cons
What we are great at It may not be appropriate to
Charge
We already have quality
systems in place
Your funders may not want
you to charge
We have a reputation for
delivering that service or
product currently
It may require a change to
your internal systems
Charitable Purpose Trading
Pros & Cons of Shops (or any non charitable service or
product)
Pros Cons
You have a great story about
where the surplus will go
Level of risk to invest in a new
business venture
Diversification of Income New Skill sets need to be
acquired
Do you have the appetite to
make a new venture work,
while still delivering your
charitable objectives.
A 3rd Option
We at Age Concern Hampshire have started a range of ‘Boutique’ Charity
shops where the profits are reinvested into the organisation but we have
also set targets to deliver services for older people from these shops.
In essence they are fully integrated into our service delivery
– Dementia Days
– Carer Pamper Evenings
– Dementia talks
– Sign posting to our Information and Advice Services
– Sign posting and referrals to our Day Care Services
– A base for our Community Based Volunteers to meet and work from
In Summary
We as a Sector need to be confident in getting money
from many different sources.
If the opportunity is there to charge for our services
then do.
If we can diversify (whilst managing the risks) then do
so, the more this can be integrated into your every day
business then perfect.

Long term reserves should have an Equities bias • Manager Selection – Favour those who can answer your important questions – and can provide evidence of their capabilities; ask for references…!!

  • 83. Charitable Purpose Trading Pros & Cons of Shops (or any non charitable service or product) Pros Cons You have a great story about where the surplus will go Level of risk to invest in a new business venture Diversification of Income New Skill sets need to be acquired Do you have the appetite to make a new venture work, while still delivering your charitable objectives.
  • 84. A 3rd Option We at Age Concern Hampshire have started a range of ‘Boutique’ Charity shops where the profits are reinvested into the organisation but we have also set targets to deliver services for older people from these shops. In essence they are fully integrated into our service delivery – Dementia Days – Carer Pamper Evenings – Dementia talks – Sign posting to our Information and Advice Services – Sign posting and referrals to our Day Care Services – A base for our Community Based Volunteers to meet and work from
  • 85. In Summary We as a Sector need to be confident in getting money from many different sources. If the opportunity is there to charge for our services then do. If we can diversify (whilst managing the risks) then do so, the more this can be integrated into your every day business then perfect.
