What is Link UP Flash Consulting?

Home | Events & Resources | Events | Flash Consulting

Flash Consulting is a fun and efficient way to bring about change.

Our Flash Consulting match Skilled Volunteers to Social Good Organisations in a one-off consultancy session.

Each Flash Consulting event hosts multiple 1:1 matches of Skilled Volunteers and Social Good Organisations (SGO).

Each event focuses on one skill area that we know charities need to grow. To date we have run events on Digital Marketing / Social Media, Organisational Development, Communications and Strategy.

To date we’ve supported 95 Social Good Organisations through Flash Consulting sessions with 103 Skilled Volunteer participants, who brought with them 850+ years of professional experience!

Who takes part?

  • London-based micro, small and medium sized Social Good Organisations (community groups, registered charities, social enterprises) in need of specific organisational support.
  • Volunteers with specific professional experience and expertise in the area of focus for that event. To date, our volunteers were of senior to mid-level calibre, and brought a wealth of professional experience to their 1:1 sessions.

How does it work?

  • Volunteers and SGOs sign up within a defined timeframe.
  • Prior to the event, we work behind the scenes to make perfect match.
  • Volunteers are then informed of their match in advance.
  • At the event, SGO and Volunteer matches meet and start their 1:1 consulting session.
