The Kubernesis Partnership LLP was a small
firm of charity consultants, most recently based in Dunbar, Scotland (previously
in York, and originally founded in the Bristol area). Over the years
we offered a wide range of services, primarily to small/medium charities,
across all parts of the UK including:
- Forming new charities
- Independent examination of charity accounts
- Charity mergers and restructuring
- Training for charity specialist and advisers
- Support to professional bodies dealing with
charity issues.
However, the partners retired from
professional work in autumn 2022 and the LLP was dissolved in spring 2025.
So the firm no longer exists - this website is just being maintained
for a few months as a historical record.
Nevertheless, the former partners - Gareth &
Sharon Morgan - remain active in the charity sphere in a range of voluntary
roles, in particular:
- Gareth Morgan continues to hold an honorary
position as Emeritus Professor of Charity Studies at Sheffield Hallam
University - click here for his main
research publications
- He remains active in some professional bodies
(as a retired member) continues to serve on a various charity sector working
parties
- Gareth Morgan's books for charity practitioners
(published by Directory of Social Change) are still relevant and available:
Charitable Incorporated
Organisations (2nd edn 2018) and
The Charity Treasurer's
Handbook (6th edn 2023) - co-authored with Elaine Alsop
- Both former partners are trustees of The
Paristamen Charity - a small grantmaking charity: see
www.paristamen.org.uk
- Sharon Morgan is involved in various
church-linked pastoral work
- Gareth still continues to speak occasionally
at charity events.
For any queries regarding the above, Gareth can
be reached at email gm . kubernesis @ gmail . com (but without the
spaces). (However, we cannot respond to queries related to former
Kubernesis client work.)
Thank you to all the former clients who
supported us over the years.
