Case Studies
building governance
Partnered with Community Action Redbridge to develop a practical governance framework for Redbridge Giving, balancing community decision-making with clear trustee accountability.
“We really valued Shared Purpose's governance expertise and the clear advice they gave us on the technicalities and complexities of the governance arrangements. Their conversations with other schemes and the good practice they gathered were really valuable in shaping our scheme.”
Jenny Ellis, CEO, Community Action Redbridge
Qualitative research
Facilitated the co-design of national policy positions for NAVCA, strengthening the influence of civil society on health service priorities.
“Absolutely fantastic in terms of their ability to plan, mobilise quickly, and deliver strong connections with stakeholders, both within our membership and within the NHS … Really helped us to produce high quality outputs and successfully supported NAVCA’s impact.”
Alex Boys, Deputy CEO, NAVCA
Organisational review
Reviewed the governance of a small charity, helping trustees make informed decisions during financial and leadership challenges.
“Lev handled this job very sensitively and provided our member organisation with an excellent report that gave them the direction they needed to execute a well-managed closure. Lev showed a strong ability to understand the pressures the trustees were under and was able to break down the suggested way forward into clear steps.”
Dan Francis, Lead Consultant, NCVO
strategic alliances
Partnered with NHS England and NAVCA to design the VCSE Leadership Programme, strengthening voluntary sector leadership and collaboration across Integrated Care Systems.
“The support provided by Lev, Emma and their team since 2018 has been instrumental in keeping me sane, focused and energised. They don’t come with ‘the answers’ — they help you think it through, connect with peers, and feel understood. Their ability to turn experiences into practical advice, workshops and influential reports has been virtually priceless.”
Joe Hannett, Partnership Manager at Community Futures, Lancashire & South Cumbria ICS

Angela Spence, CEO, Kensington and Chelsea Social Council and Jackie Rosenberg,CEO, One Westminster
