Consultancy

Sometimes a church needs focused, specialist support to navigate a particular challenge or season of change.

UCAN doesn’t provide any direct consultancy itself. However, through our Consultant Referral Network, we connect churches with trusted, experienced professionals from within our wider community who understand the realities of church leadership and administration.

Our approved associates offer consultancy tailored to your specific context. Areas of support include:

Governance, Leadership & Management
Restructuring / Review of Resources
Organisational Health and Strategic planning
Communications
HR / Staffing
Financial Management
I.T. & Systems
Fundraising
Project Management / Planning
Premises and Building Projects
Training

Each associate has been carefully selected for their experience, professional expertise and understanding of church environments.

How it works

When you submit a referral request, we will review your needs and connect you with an appropriate consultant. Any arrangement will be agreed directly between you and the consultant, including scope and fees.

As part of our Consultant Referral Network, UCAN receives a small percentage of the agreed fee. This helps support the wider work of our mission and enables us to continue resourcing churches across the UK.
