The DPO Centre Charity and Community Fund

The DPO Centre Charity and Community Fund’s purpose is to provide access to data protection consultancy services, but at an 80% funded rate, therefore enabling worthy causes to access expertise, but with the least effect on their ability to fund their core purpose.

How this funding can support your organisation:

• Immediate access to Subject Matter Experts and a broadly experienced team of data protection professionals
• Removal of the ‘unknowns’ experienced when conducting a similar process internally
• Peace of mind that you are working with one of the largest, most established data protection providers available
• A decrease in the potential for compliance failure across the organisation
• Substantial reduction in regulatory and reputational risk
• Ultimately leading to improved trust, increased engagement, elevated reputation – promoting ever-increasing organisational value

Eligible charities can apply for up to £10,000 of funding towards any of these example consultancy services:

• Information Asset Register and Data Mapping
• Policy Drafting and Review
• Impact Assessments and Gap Analysis
• Data Protection Training
• Data Sharing and International Transfers
• Privacy-by-Design
• Data Protection Readiness

To be eligible organisations are expected to:

• Be based in the UK
• Have a management committee in place of at least 3 unrelated people
• Have a bank account in the charity/NFP name
• Be willing to carry out a case study once the consultancy work has been completed
