KA Consultancy
South East England

Charity & Funding Consultancy in Surrey

Surrey is one of the parts of England most affected by the affluence narrative — the perception that need is low and statutory funding is plentiful. Neither is fully true. KA Consultancy works with Surrey charities, CICs and community organisations navigating a complex landscape with clarity and rigour.

Our support spans grant fundraising, business planning, cashflow modelling, project development and partnership design — delivered by senior practitioners, hands-on throughout.

Local context

Surrey contains real and growing pockets of need — particularly around mental health, isolation, young people and family support — alongside areas of significant affluence. National funders frequently overlook the county; local funders and place-based programmes tell a more nuanced story.

We help Surrey organisations build the evidence base, partnerships and proposals that travel well, both within the county and to national funders.
