Who We Are

Connecting the Dots to Grow Communities of Hope

This is our ministry. And our profession. We are a small team of Christians, passionate about equipping the local church to transform communities. We have chosen to use our talents, gifts and skills to make a positive contribution to the world. We do this as a professional limited company. It’s our job. We love our work.

We are more than fundraisers. As your development partner, we see the bigger picture, connect the dots and help you prepare all aspects of your project for long-term sustainability and growth. We will challenge and encourage you as a ‘critical friend’.

We won’t work with everyone. We need to believe in your vision. We need to see potential for life to grow. You will have the desire to respond effectively to identified community needs. Together, we want to see real lives changed.

We are willing to take risks. Working at the early stages of growth is risky. We recognise the possibility of failure, but we trust that our efforts will bear fruit. When the outcomes are this important, the risks are worth taking.

We work in the background. You’re in the spotlight. You are the star. We take a supporting role; empowering leaders, equipping the local church and enabling grassroots growth. Your success is our success.

Our profit is not at the expense of your mission. We celebrate you, and your unique mission to your community. We work hard to keep our services accessible to smaller projects because we know that your size doesn’t define your significance.


Our History

Our work began as a project to support projects in and around Bradford. It was established in 2012 under the name JDV Ltd, and a year later formed a partnership with the Bradford-focused charity Olive Branch Trust, which was receiving requests from projects elsewhere in West Yorkshire. In 2016, JDV Ltd took over the fundraising and development work of the Olive Branch Trust and was relaunched as Futurekraft.

Since adopting this strategy in 2012, we have worked with 130+ churches, charities and community projects of varying sizes and needs. In addition to the vital development support that has enabled these projects to grow and thrive, we have raised over £7m to ensure ongoing sustainability for our clients.


Many organisations have already seen their ideas transformed into fantastic sustainable projects through partnership with us.

“We’re grateful for the professional and personal support Futurekraft have given in reviewing and future planning for our social action projects. They’ve quickly understood the needs and worked with us to broaden the vision and support for our work.”

Michael Reid

Senior Pastor, Elim Pentecostal Church Huddersfield

We have an excellent track record of raising money for our partners. We do not take on contracts that are solely about fundraising. Instead, we take a unique look at the whole organisation;

  • Governance,
  • Vision,
  • Operations,
  • Finance,

in order to make sure that each element is fit for the future.

“Futurekraft represent the very best of Professional Development Management, and as a result, the Diane Modahl Sports Foundation (DMSF) have benefited from clear, concise and results driven packages and solutions that meet our needs.

“Their expert knowledge and consistent track record within fundraising has enable DMSF to consistently establish and reinforce the values of our organisation – this has been essential, particularly as we are an evolving business.”

Diane Modahl
CEO, DMSF

“Futurekraft have worked with us at the LJWB on a number of occasions and I cannot recommended or rate their work highly enough. They are able to quickly grasp the ‘brief’ and translate this into practical and workable solutions.

“Jan is adept at asking the ‘killer questions’ in a sensitive manner whilst not being afraid to ‘drill down’ to the real issues. I can rely on Futurekraft to deliver and obtain results.”

Liz Bradbury
CEO, Leeds Jewish Welfare Board
