Free advice from our trusted suppliers

Our partners complement our range of benefits, and offer free advice and consultations so you can try out their services and get to know them better.

Brewin Dolphin is one of the largest charity investment managers in the UK and Ireland, with nine specialist teams managing over £3.5 billion for more than 1,600 charities.

Whether you want to invest for income, growth or total return, to secure your organisation’s future, we are here to help your charity achieve its goals – while being mindful of your responsibilities.

  • investment policy
  • management of reserves
  • types of investment solutions available
  • realistic investment forecasts in coming years

How we work together

Every one of our charity clients are different in their objectives and requirements. We take time to understand each organisation’s unique circumstances, financial objectives, risk appetite and ethical considerations, before building a portfolio tailored to a charity’s specific needs and actively manage this through time.

  • Specialist teams across the UK and Ireland available to support you

A service tailored to your charity

  • No ties to in-house funds
  • Managed under a retail agreement, offering greater regulatory protection
  • Strategies aligned to the charitable principles of each organisation and their ethical and ESG requirements

Dedicated to supporting charity trustees for the long term

  • Guided and advised by our in-house Research Team

Added value from charity experts
