Specialist sectors

Advising across the full charity spectrum is our speciality: we have niche expertise in diverse areas. Here are just a few of the sectors we specialise in.

Sustainability focussed charities and NGOs

We champion local and international charities and campaign groups. We back grassroots groups and act for the Green Party. We lobby for positive change. Thanks to our work, the Charity Commission recognises sustainable development as a charitable purpose.

Faith-based Organisations

We know every decision you make is grounded in your faith. We help you maintain that, so you can uphold your values while staying compliant with the law. Our advice is sensitive and practical. Read more about our specialist Faith-based organisations expertise.

Health and social care

Whether your challenge is commercial or with governance, regulations or litigation, you can rely on us for practical, strategic advice. The benefit of being a full-service firm is that we can solve almost any legal problem affecting health and social care providers, charities, professional bodies and ‘spin-outs’ – find out more and access resources on our Health and social care expertise.

International NGOs

Being an INGO is rewarding, but tough. Sending your teams and volunteers into often-difficult situations around the world can present unusual challenges.

We’ve felt your frustrations first hand. Many of our team are trustees of INGOs and their work couldn’t be closer to our hearts. The advice we give isn’t just legal, it’s personal – tailored to your context, culture and structure. Fine out more about our International NGOs expertise, how we can help as well as sharing useful sector resources.

Sports

Our dedicated Sports expertise covers everything from governance advice, to funding for new facilities, to taking care of trade marks. Our clients are equally varied, ranging from grassroots clubs to national governing bodies (NGBs) and world-class sportspeople.
