RMG Associates:

What our consultancy clients say

RMG Associates has played a significant role in the development and growth of GLF Schools Foundation since its inception. As one of the Foundation’s earliest strategic supporters, they provided invaluable guidance in shaping the Foundation’s fundraising approach, helping to establish strong foundations for long-term sustainability and growth.

Through their expertise and networks, RMG Associates facilitated introductions to a range of charitable trusts, foundations and philanthropic contacts, significantly expanding the Foundation’s reach and fundraising opportunities. Their support helped the Foundation navigate the complex charitable funding landscape, providing strategic advice on positioning, relationship building and grant-making opportunities.

A particularly valuable contribution was enabling access to the Tasso Foundation, creating opportunities for partnership and investment that have supported programmes benefiting GLF students. Beyond individual introductions, Richard Garrett has acted as a trusted advisor, offering ongoing counsel on fundraising strategy, donor engagement and the development of a compelling case for support.

RMG Associates’ commitment during the Foundation’s formative years helped accelerate progress, strengthen credibility with funders and lay the groundwork for the diverse portfolio of trust, foundation and philanthropic partnerships that the Foundation enjoys today. The impact of their support extends well beyond individual funding opportunities, helping to establish the infrastructure, networks and strategic direction that continue to underpin the Foundation’s success. Richard Garrett’s model and philosophy has been a cornerstone for the Foundation’s development.

For several years RMG Associates has been a valued partner of University Schools Trust (UST). 

Through the guidance and support of Richard Garrett the Trust has enriched opportunities for students, parents and staff. Much of this guidance has been based on the core tenets that underpin his work – the 4Rs Reputation, Recruitment, Resource and Revenue. All of these are served through the delivery of the 3Ps – Programmes, People Awards and Projects for students, teachers and families within our wider community.

RMG Associates in association with The Tasso Foundation has strengthened UST’s network of external partnerships, opening up opportunities for collaboration, professional development and knowledge sharing. Initiatives such as Beyond the Gates #BTG have helped staff expand their networks and engage with organisations outside the education sector. This partnership continues to raise aspirations, broaden horizons and create lasting benefits for the UST community.

For example, most recently, The Tasso Foundation’s funding of UST’s schools has allowed us to continue the annual Science Summer School at St Paul’s Way School. This has enabled more than 700 students from across London each year to participate in inspiring STEAM experiences and explore future education and career pathways.

The day has been amazing. To see the children inspired, not just by sport and tennis, but also from science, singing and opera – it’s been a real eye-opener for me.

I am always struck by how keen businesses and charities are to work with schools, but often they do not know how to do so in an efficient way. Richard’s skills and experience based on the cross-sector RMG Associates Philosophy and Model help to make that happen.
