Patrick Boggon is the founder and Director of Tarnside Consulting. He has spent his career helping charities and not-for-profits maximise their fundraising potential so they can “make good things happen”. This has included: setting up brain injury rehabilitation centre at the Calvert Trust, transforming Auckland Castle from an under-used bishop’s palace to a top visitor attraction leading regeneration in the area, doubling the income at Newcastle Hospitals charities, and supporting domestic abuse charities with training and coaching. Securing over £500 million was the tangible result. But more important still has been the transformation within these organisations and for the people they help.

Patrick has two grown up daughters. In his spare time he enjoys cycling, coppicing, cooking, and going on adventures.
