Welcome to Inspiring Positive Impact
Hello. I’m Rachel Ireland. I’m a Third Sector Consultant, helping charities, social enterprises and community groups to launch, secure funding and become sustainable.
Inspiring Positive Impact is a Substack newsletter & YouTube channel where I share training workshops and planning tools to help you make a difference in your community and create social impact.
Writing and creating these resources is my way of giving back, of sharing the knowledge and skills I’ve built up over 18 years of working in the third sector.
My ethics are rooted in paying it forward to those trying to make the world a better place.
For this reason, all of the content here is free to access.
Where I get paid for my consultancy work, the Substack publication and YouTube channel are my voluntary contributions to expand that support beyond those individuals and groups I work with on a one-to-one basis.
I send two emails each month; either an article with accompanying video, or a recorded workshop. You can find an index of all previous posts here.
If you’re starting or running a charity or social enterprise and looking for support, here are three ways I can help:
I provide all of my resources for free (training workshops & planning tools).
For consultancy support, read about my services and fees, then contact me to discuss.
Kirklees-based groups can apply for funded mentoring support by completing this form.
You’ll also find my free online courses:
Plus recorded workshops including:
Workshop: Fundraising Strategy Overview
I live and work in the beautiful West Yorkshire countryside, taking daily walks with my whippet, Penny, and kept very happily busy by my partner, Caroline and two pre-teen sons. I’m also hugely passionate about planning, journaling and productivity, and a little addicted to buying stationery.
Wherever you are on your own journey, I hope you find something here that inspires you.
