Testimonials

I've been fortunate enough to have had more than a glimpse of MyCake's data across the arts sector and am absolutely bowled over by the depth, interest and value of this work. It really informs an understanding of what is going on in my sector and across all the sectors. The mind boggles at everything that can be inferred from such thorough, accurate and easy-to-handle information. Incredible job.

Bill Bankes-Jones

Sarah and her team adapted to a frequently changing brief and delivered on what should have been impossible deadlines. They listened to our queries and explained concepts in an easily accessible way.

Gemma Rocyn Jones
The National Lottery Community Fund

Previously, we had only known the low hanging fruit. We can now find the hidden gems of social enterprise.

David Baxter
Wigan & Leigh Community

The data dashboard has provided for the first time a real insight into the scale of the local VCSE sector on a number of levels such as: how many and types of organisations are plotted across the city and key data on the financial health of them – how they are faring, sources of income and trends. This data is key for informing current and future strategies, as it provides a clear snapshot of the state of the sector, investment into the city of grant funds and gaps in coverage and services.
