For UK charities & small organisations
Practical data quality support
Helping charities and small organisations build trust in their data
Data Resource One provides practical data quality support for organisations without dedicated data specialists. We help identify, understand and resolve the issues that make reporting harder, waste valuable time and reduce confidence in the information you rely on.
The hidden cost of poor data
Poor quality data does not just sit quietly in the background. It creates extra work, slows people down and makes everyday decisions harder than they need to be.
Low confidence in reports
Reports become harder to trust when records are duplicated, incomplete or inconsistent across different systems.
Communication problems
Duplicate or outdated contact records can affect campaigns, supporter communication and day-to-day operations.
Does any of this sound familiar?
Many organisations experience the same recurring data problems, especially when no one has clear ownership of data quality.
🧩 Duplicate records
- Multiple versions of the same person or organisation.
- Records split across spreadsheets and systems.
- Different teams maintaining separate lists.
📉 Reporting issues
- Reports that do not match.
- Unclear or inconsistent figures.
- Low confidence in the numbers being used.
🧼 Missing or inconsistent information
- Incomplete contact details.
- Different naming and formatting standards.
- Old records mixed with current information.
📁 Data spread across systems
- CRM exports, spreadsheets and manual lists all being used together.
- No single reliable view of the data.
- Repeated fire-fighting before campaigns or reports.
