Why we're different


We understand that the not-for-profit sector is complex, inspiring and involves thousands of organisations of every size and type.

Our personal experience of the sector, and our track record in the services we offer, enable us to design responses to meet your particular needs at any given time.

Who's who


Action Planning is led by our Chairman and Chief Executive who have outstanding senior sector experience. Each of our specialist services is led by a Director with recent and relevant sector expertise. We have a hub, our conference and workshop team and a support team based in our office in Surrey. Our team of highly committed. specialist consultants are based all across the UK.

Our history
