Our Impact

See some examples of our work in the case studies below: https://tenyearstime.com/case-studies/

‘We have loved our time with you all and will never forget it, a real gamechanger on so many levels.’
– Private Family Foundation Client

‘The work Ten Years’ Time did (for my family foundation), we would have paid 5 times as much for in a commercial setting.’
– Bart Becht, former Chair, Reckitt Benckiser

‘I’ve now recommended (TYT) to two of our top private clients. The clients have loved working with them to move from quite traditional philanthropy to something much more adventurous that gives them the opportunity to learn a lot more and, we hope, to make a much greater difference to the world.’
– David Scott, Partner, Harbottle & Lewis

‘Working with Ten Years’ Time was a genuinely fantastic experience with you all and so wonderful to have met you all, and all the amazing people you introduced us to. Unforgettable on so many levels.’
– Family Foundation Trustee

‘Working with (TYT) helped us gain real insight into some of the country’s most pressing problems. Their insight and support was crucial in guiding us towards investing time and money in some truly transformative ways.’
– Founders, Big Change Charitable Trust

The Grant Givers’ Programme has supported over 120 people working in grant-making, with 100% of all participants saying they would recommend it to others and wanting to engage after the programme. The Grant Givers Movement, an independent network of 220 grant-makers, evolved from this programme.

‘This program is the best I’ve participated in, it brings together theory and practice so brilliantly and gets you exposed to the hot topics in philanthropy. This program has encouraged me to continue promoting change in the sector. I wholeheartedly recommend it!’
– Course participant, Winter 2019/20

‘It’s helped me a lot to not get bogged down in the day-to-day and think more about what being a better funder looks like, and how to actually do it.’
– Course participant, Winter 2019/20

‘The Grant Givers Programme has encouraged me to think outside of the box and apply a different perspective to grant-making. The thematic sessions have challenged my thinking and inspired me to apply new ways of working in my day-to-day role.’
– Course participant, Winter 2019/20

‘The programme has really helped me to step back from the day job and reflect on what good grant-making practice really looks like. It is very refreshing to have the chance to hear different perspectives from expert speakers, and to debate the issues with a group of peers from other organisations.’
– Course Participant, Winter 2019/20

‘It was very hard for me to pick favourite sessions as I found them all very useful and interesting in different ways. The mix of topics, content and speakers worked really well… Thank you – and Claire – very much for a fantastic experience which I hope will continue. Great cohort and programme.’
– Course Participant, Winter 2019/20
