Frequently asked questions
What should a charity do first when improving digital capability?
Start with a simple assessment of existing tools, critical processes, and the data that people actually need to use every week.
Why do charities struggle with data quality?
Because data entry, ownership and standards are often left to chance rather than defined as part of day-to-day work.
How can a small charity choose the right tools?
By focusing on the problem they are solving, the people who will use the tool, and the budget and support they can realistically maintain.
