For UK Charities
Alongside commercial advisory, Diorama supports the charity sector directly through Trustee roles — bringing the same pragmatic, P&L-literate approach to mission impact instead of margin.
Trustee
Helpforce believes volunteering is a vital part of health and care, and works to make it easy for NHS trusts to build, scale, and measure high-impact volunteer programmes.
Mal Minhas serves as a Trustee for Helpforce, advising on Digital and AI strategy alongside the organisation’s leadership team as it scales volunteering programmes across the NHS.

These two sessions form an AI Leadership Readiness programme delivered to charity leaders through Third Sector Lab in 2026. Session 1 (13 May) introduced foundational AI literacy and governance frameworks for charity leadership teams. Session 2 (16 June) moved from frameworks to practical implementation, covering AI policy development, data classification, and a live demonstration of building a lightweight CRM for a fictional small charity called BrightHope directly from a spreadsheet. Feedback from both sessions was positive, with attendees consistently citing the practical, charity-specific framing as the key strength.

BrightHope is a proof-of-concept customer relationship management tool, built to show charities a practical middle step between an overstretched spreadsheet and a costly enterprise CRM. Developed with Lovable and Claude Code as a live demonstration for the second Third Sector Lab session, it illustrates how a small charity could track donors, supporters, and case records in a lightweight, purpose-built interface, without the procurement overhead of a full CRM platform.
