Our Services - Planning for the Future
Having a great idea is one thing; making it happen can be something else entirely. CSC has helped many organisations from the public, voluntary and community sectors to realise their ambitions. CSC Business Plans have helped guide delivery and attract the funding that have got a project off the ground, and ensured its sustainability.

CSC Business Plans are based on thorough research; we take account of the differing views of local needs and capacity, in order to come up with a workable plan that makes an idea a reality. Crucially, our Business Plans are intended to be working documents that will help you plan and deliver a project through the implementation stage. What you will find includes:


* A gap analysis based on assessments of local needs and exsisting services

* A review of how you fit with the local regeneration activity

* Recommendations for your ownership, management and staffing plans, and legal structure

* Assessments of your capital and revenue funding needs, potential for income generation, and recommendations for charitable fund raising

* Discussion of potential threats to your ambitions, and realistic advice on how to deal with them

And all of this will be written in Plain English that avoids meaningless jargon and consultancy-speak. Please click on the Case Studies tab for details of some of the many Business Plans that we have written for community organisations, charities, Parish Councils and regeneration partnerships.

image Project and Programme Evaluations

Regeneration needs invariably last longer than the length of a funding programme. A quality evaluation is therefore an invaluable tool in ensuring that local benefits are not lost when the funding finishes. CSC has helped many regeneration partnerships to show what has been achieved, demonstrate continuing needs, and attract additional funding. more…
