Helen Whittle -good giving consultant.
I was once described by a client as having “the aura of a comfy chair” and whilst this comment still makes me laugh! it also captures something true about how I work. I’m trusted by individuals, families, and private client advisors across the regions for my down-to-earth way of navigating the world of philanthropy.
- Founder of The Giving Concierge
I’m an accredited business and personal coach and trained in an approach that helps multi-generational families navigate complex conversations about money, meaning, and legacy.
If you’d like more detail on my background and training, you can find it on LinkedIn. The heart of my professional story is that I spent twenty-five years working in the impact economy; raising and distributing millions in private philanthropic funding across the North West.
Many of those fulfilling years were as a consultant at Cheshire Community Foundation, advising people and businesses looking to give locally via donor advised and place-based funds.
Cheshire, and the village of Lymm, is home and where I’m raising my Gen Alpha daughter (who says Lymm feels like Ripon the small North Yorkshire city I’m originally from). What I know is that from here, I’m ideally placed to support families and individuals across the North and beyond.
