Could you be our new charity of the year?

Over the past few years we have had incredible charities apply to be our charity of the year each year and we are excited to announce… APPLICATIONS ARE OPEN AGAIN!

Our previous charities of the year have been:  Trust House Reading, Against the Grain, ASPIRE2 and Smart Works Reading.

At Holy Brook Associates we support our clients to improve the way they run their organisation. We are a small team of skilled professionals that aim to operate in an ethical manner and give back to the local community. This includes bookkeeping and financial management help, support in communicating with your audience more effectively and encouraging you to be more strategic and innovative in your decision making.

We have always mentioned that we would try to work with one local charity each year, thus we are inviting charities based in or working in the Reading area to apply to be our charity of the year. We are particularly keen to work with a charity that could benefit from our professional skills and expertise.
