New Pro Bono OR project: Help to carry out an organisation review for this women and children's charity









Hamlin Fistula UK 

Organisation Review 

Project:

HFUK are dedicated to restoring the health and dignity of women who have survived the horrendous – and preventable – childbirth injury: obstetric fistula. HFUK need a PBOR volunteer to help carry out a stock-take of its organisation and performance prior to recruiting a new CEO.

Project description:
With the current CEO due to retire in the next year, now is a good time to review HFUK’s organisation and performance. The review would likely focus on a SWOT analysis with a view to identifying options for:
Recruitment profile of new CEO
Opportunities for improvement of marketing and fundraising processes
Targeting current and future donors
HFUK’s primary role is to raise funds for hospitals in Ethiopia and has been successful in this for around 50 years, but largely dependent on major donations made several years ago. The donor base is ageing and this presents a challenge for the future. The organisation is also immature in its use of digital technology and sees this as an improvement area/opportunity.
Project Stages: 

Agree Terms of Reference with Chair & CEO
Information gathering from staff & trustees (e.g. SWOT)
Analysis of donors (donation patterns & demographics)
Identify key issues and opportunities (report/present) 

This project would suit a volunteer with experience of helping senior managers with strategy (options/decision-making/systems thinking).

Time commitment3 - 4 days 

Location: All the work can be done remotely (HFUK is based in Birmingham). 

If you feel you are able to offer your assistance please complete the application form and return along with your CV to amy.hughes@theorsociety.com by 18th May 2020.
