“David has made a substantial and practical contribution to Early Years Cocoon CIC. His work across Salesforce, finance, reporting and funding infrastructure has helped us become better organised and more confident in responding to funders. The Funding Knowledge Base approach grew directly from this work, helping us organise our funding information, evidence our impact more clearly and stop rebuilding the same content from scratch. Since then, the quality of our applications has improved significantly, and we have passed the £1 million mark in funding secured. His support has helped us manage the organisation more clearly while staying focused on delivery.”
