FRESH WORKSHOPS, TRAINING AND CONSULTANCY FOR NONPROFITS, CHARITIES AND PURPOSE-DRIVEN TEAMS

Honest, human-centred support for organisations who want to build sustainable careers, healthier cultures, and purpose-led leadership.

Here at What’s the Charitea? we have a clear vision:

To change the way we think about, talk about, and feel about purpose-led work. For too long, nonprofit workplace wellbeing support and charity sector career development has been generic, outdated and disconnected from the realities people face.

The result? Brilliant humans burning out, leaders stretched thin, and organisations struggling to sustain the very impact they exist to create.

So I made it my mission to create workshops, talks and consultancy that people actually want to engage with - practical, honest, energising sessions that help individuals and teams build sustainable careers, healthier workplaces, and organisational cultures that truly support their people.

Our work sparks action, shifts mindsets and makes your people feel genuinely valued.​

WHO WE WORK WITH

Nonprofits   /   Charities   /   Social Enterprises   /   Funders   /   Community Purpose-driven teams across the social impact sector

THE WORKSHOPS

Our workshops are designed for nonprofits, charities, social enterprises, and purpose-driven organisations who are ready to rethink the way they work, lead and look after their people. If you want practical, person-centred training and talks that support wellbeing, leadership, culture, communication, and sustainable careers then you’re in the right place.

What people are saying about us - “The online talk with you was fantastic, I took so much away from it and it made me feel 100 times better about my work in the sector.”

I saw Louise speak and she articulated what myself and many of my peers feel about our work; passionate, dedicated, exhausted, overwhelmed. Her talk was different to any of the other wellbeing and career sessions I’ve seen before. I left feeling acknowledged, empowered and equipped to help protect my wellbeing at work which ultimately has led to me being a better colleague and manager.”
