consultancy.coop www.consultancy.coop is a co-operative of experienced third sector consultants based in Wales. It uses a relatively new legal format for co-operatives – the Limited Liability Partnership. The LLP was designed originally for partnerships of professionals, enabling them to gain a more formal arrangement than existing partnerships and for the organisation itself to benefit from limited liability status. Co-operatives UK have adapted the model into a form especially designed for co-operatives of freelancers and other professionals.
Its membership is diverse and knowledgeable, with experience over many years operating as consultants and at all levels in this highly specialist sector. They bring a strongly focussed, business oriented approach, coupled with an understanding of, and empathy with, the values and passion of this sector.
They are able to offer a wide range of services to social enterprises, co-operatives, charities and government:-
- Strategic & Business Planning – helping you through the process.
