We all want loyal donors and lots of them. But why? What benefits do really loyal donors bring? How do we find them, develop them and what will it cost? What are the pitfalls and how do we avoid those? How do we make the most of all opportunities, so that our donors stay supporting us for longer and get more out of it?

Free Degrees by Lyndi Smith
If you think education is expensive, try fundraising for it. You could save a fortune.

Initial investment: £6.95. Potential return: up to £26,000.

Contrary to what many believe, education doesn’t have to come at a price. Anyone can raise the funds necessary to pay their way through academic life, without getting into debt.

So says former drama student Lyndi Smith. She should know; she raised over £26,000. In her new book Free Degrees Lyndi explains and illustrates what it takes to raise money to pay for education, start to finish. For just £6.95, what better investment could there be for yourself, or as a present for a son, daughter or anyone starting on the road to life?

The Field by the River by Ken Burnett
‘A simple walk in the woods becomes a year-long adventure packed with mysteries, insights and wonder, often all on the same page. Ken’s ‘Field’ will make you happy and, possibly, consider investing in rugged new footwear.’

Emma Thompson
Oscar-winning actress and screenwriter


‘Ken Burnett’s delicious storytelling makes Kerkelven come alive as he surprises, entertains and enchants us. I hope The Field by the River will establish the author as the modern successor to White and Thoreau. It has inspired me to take better note of the living riches that surround us when we are out walking.’
Indra Sinha
Author of Animal's People, short-listed for the 2007 Man Booker prize


‘In the world of news we’re surrounded with fast-moving stories of horror, destruction and pain. The Field by the River is an effective antidote, being gently comforting and mellow. Yet
you’ll also learn a lot of zoology, a bit of botany and a smattering of hydrology.’
Natalie Bennett
Editor, Guardian Weekly

‘I have a sneaking suspicion this could take off in A Year in Provence kind of way’
Tiffany Daneff
The Sunday Times

‘Beautifully observed and charmingly written, his book is a homage to nature, wildlife and the true wonders of the great outdoors.’
