“Jennifer from For Purpose Advisory has been fantastic to work with. In addition to her excellent legal skills and knowledge, she understands our work, teams and our needs and develops legal solutions tailored to us. She drafts in a way that is approachable and legally sound which ticks all of my boxes. Jennifer is also incredibly responsive – there to assist when we need help! Can’t recommend her highly enough.”

Katie Wood, Legal Counsel and Company Secretary

“We worked with the amazing Jen from FPA to pull together our brand new Participation and Talent Request Form. We believe this form was a crucial step in empowering the young people we work with to make informed decisions about their intellectual property, image and information. Our first round of forms have gone out and we feel a huge sense of pride in formally giving young people the opportunity to consent, opt in and opt out of information sharing and media involvement. Jen carefully considered the brief and went back and forth with us until we landed on our dream form. We really appreciate your help with this, Jen!”

“Leah Harman’s board resolution papers and board minutes are without a doubt the best I have ever seen. Her attention to detail, organizational skills, and ability to clearly and concisely document our meetings and decisions is truly remarkable.
As a board member, I rely heavily on the accuracy and completeness of the minutes and resolutions that Leah prepares, and I am constantly impressed by the quality of her work. Her contributions are invaluable to the success of our company, and I feel privileged to work alongside such a dedicated and skilled professional.”

“Emergency Action Alliance has worked closely with For Purpose Advisory on many matters in relation to our evolution and launch as a charity. This includes the formulation of governance documentation, advice on governance matters, policy formation and documentation associated with our appeals. Due to the nature of our work, responding to global emergencies, we often need help at a moment’s notice. Hannah and the team at For Purpose Advisory always respond quickly to our requests and they are very comprehensive in the assistance they provide.”

Kerren Morris, Executive Director

“We cannot recommend FPA highly enough. Hannah and the FPA team are our go to for all legal advice and assistance for not-for-profit and charity co-operatives. They have expertly assisted a number of our members over a number of years. Always professional, always going the extra mile, always telling it straight, and always wise and compassionate.”

Sam Byrne, Secretary

“The team at For Purpose Advisory have transformed our Board and Committee meetings. Efficient preparation of Board and Committee materials, quick turnaround of minutes and excellent advice. The link between committees and board operations is now much clearer and effective. They are efficient, discrete, and extremely friendly. I cannot recommend them highly enough.”

Kirsty Robertson, Chief Executive Officer

“I’ve had the pleasure of working with Hannah Rose and For purpose Advisory for over 5 years and without a doubt Hannah is one of the most experienced not-for-profit governance legal experts I’ve worked with as a NFP CEO. Hannah has been able to explain complex issues simply, whilst not avoiding difficult or contentious issues. I would recommend Hannah and For Purpose Advisory without hesitation – working with Hannah is one of the best decisions you can make as a CEO or Board Chair.”

Liz Mackinlay, Chief Executive Officer

“We are an emerging charity and as such, it is important to have reliable and trusted advisors to guide us as we grow as an organisation. Kim has been instrumental in this providing consultant services in our applications for fundraising licensing throughout Australia. Despite the technical nature of a number of applications, Kim and the FPA team have been responsive, provided sound advice, and have demonstrated a clear understanding of the regulatory requirements of different states and territories in the not-for-profit sector. This has been invaluable and enabled us to be prepared as we move into raising funds to support our charitable purposes. Having a firm that shows due care, skill and diligence in all aspects of their work is something any not-for-profit organisation, whether it be large or small, should look for. We cannot highly recommend For Purpose Advisory enough to act on behalf of our charity and look forward to having them work with us as we grow.”

Samuel Doyle, Company Secretary

“I have peace of mind because I know we are meeting all our obligations as a charity. Because of FPA we have our processes in place and can focus our efforts on bringing threatened species back from the brink.”

Sam Marwood, Chief Executive Officer

“My experience with Hannah has been exemplary. Hannah has always been responsive, acutely intelligent and perceptive. Always able to deal expeditiously with us when we really needed it and patient with the delays inherent in getting decisions that inevitably come from a board that meets six times a year. I will continue to avail myself of her services as long as she is available. A great partner with the right set of values.”

Les MacDonald, Chief Executive Officer
