Not For Profit Organisations

The charity and creative sector is a major force in British society and is a particular focus of Pro Active Resolutions which has many clients who are charities, social enterprises or work in the arts. The sector is fast moving, vibrant and diverse, yet faces unique challenges and complexities unfamiliar to anyone not immersed in its culture.

Pro Active Resolutions offers specialist advice and support to help not for profit organisations achieve their goals, based on the wider experiences of it's not for profit client base and the direct, hands on involvement it has with specific organisations. Owner Mahmood Reza, for instance, has in excess of 30 years' experience in the charitable and creative sector, as a volunteer, board member, management consultant, writer and trainer.

There are a number of differences and similarities between the charity and creative sector and the "for profit" sector. Some of these main differences are due to:

  • Strategic and operating objectives
  • Funding sources
  • Performance management
  • Accountability and regulation
  • Accounting and tax

Voluntary and private sector organisations have unique and distinctive characteristics and objectives, but they also share many common experiences and values. This article, first printed in Charity Times in 1996, looks at this theme, it it still relevant today

Because Pro Active Resolutions understands these differences and recognises that the charity and creative sector is a diverse group made up of registered charities, voluntary organisations and individuals, it is better placed than many “mainstream” companies to offer tailored intelligent support on a budget you can afford.

Pro Active Resolutions provide accounting, business, management and training support to the charity and creative sector. In addition we have an expanding library of free charity and creative sector resources and downloads, and a strong team of associates and partners.
