“During 2015, thanks to Lorna’s expert guidance and advice, Clarity has been successful in gaining three grants for essential funding which enable us to continue our services to those experiencing mental health or emotional issues. Her experience and knowledge of the funding sector is second to none, and we look forward to working with her in the future to benefit our local communities” Anne Jenkins – Chair of Trustees
With Lorna’s funding knowledge, understanding of how to craft applications and her personal support, commitment and infectious optimism, we were able to raise the remaining funding needed for our community hall construction, allowing the project to proceed. Lorna was instrumental in securing further grant funding to fit out the hall post completion. I cannot over state the contribution Lorna made to this funding success story. It confirmed my already held belief that if you want to succeed in any new venture you need to have the best professional advice and guidance. Lorna certainly provided this to us. Pete Silveston – Treasurer, Marwood Community Hall

“I have worked alongside Lorna for the last 2 years in various committees. Lorna has supported those organisations with valuable information and expertise which enabled them to make good decisions, saving both time and money in the process. Her work with us on the Marwood Community Hall project has been invaluable. We needed to close the gap between what we had and what we needed to complete the build and fit out the hall.
