About us

Crowe Associates was set up in 2001 to allow us to deliver services that we are passionate about, in a way that we can be proud.


Our work includes short term "one off" projects and consultancy in Business, Health/Social Care and the Voluntary Sector.  We also undertake  longer term projects (6 months up to 2 years), funded by public and charitable trust funds.  We have a wide client base and tend to develop long term relationships with our clients.  We are delighted that most of our work comes from repeat business.

Our approach is to start every engagement by listening and understanding exactly what is needed and continuously review progress throughout.  We are known for delivering high quality work, quickly and to deadline.  We are committed to delivering value for money and exceeding our clients' expectations.

We work independently, or with a small group of Associates, to ensure that the right expertise is applied to all of our projects and services.   We are told that what makes us special is our excellence in communications and interpersonal skills - all of our activities are interactive and focussed.
