I have worked with Paul on EU projects whilst with two charities. Understanding what is involved both in terms of developing and submitting an application and also running projects successfully can be incredibly challenging, time consuming and sometimes baffling! Having Paul on board ensured I didn't have to worry about this. He has great in-depth knowledge of this area, in managing partners expectations and how projects need to be managed to ensure they come to a successful fruition.
Jo's Cervical Cancer Trust
I have worked with Paul for several years, at two charities operating internationally. I have always been frantically busy, short on internal capacity and under great pressure to produce results. Paul is a perfect companion in this respect. Above all else, he is practical, able to flex his approach to take account of the context in which his client is working whilst at the same time stimulating their thinking and ambition. This is especially vital for organisations that are new to EU funding. Paul knows the EU grants system intimately of course - and can prove it with a limitless supply of anecdotes, advice and guidance - but it is his practical approach, and his ability to make EU funding enjoyable(!), that I value above all else. I have no reservations in recommending him.
