Our Team
Daniel Morris, TSIP
Daniel Morris specialises in co-design processes that bring diverse stakeholders together to develop innovative solutions to complex challenges. He excels at facilitating participatory approaches that tap into the collective wisdom and creativity of communities, organisations, and cross-sector partnerships.
His expertise within that social innovation lab spans systems innovation, funding model design, strategic planning, learning and evaluation frameworks, and community engagement strategies. He has guided numerous initiatives i.e. youth led funding modelling for Sainsbury’s Trust and working across the West Midlands with Culham St. Gabriels, bringing inclusive visioning, prototyping, and implementation phases to drive sustainable transformation.
Daniel is a trusted facilitator of participatory grantmaking and budgeting processes that empower communities to directly shape funding priorities and decision-making with Southwark Council. Through skillful process design and group facilitation, he creates spaces for authentic dialogue, collaborative problem-solving, and shared accountability. His approach builds capacity for long-term civic engagement by centering the voices, lived experiences, and self-determined solutions of those most impacted by the issues at hand.
In addition to my design and facilitation expertise, Daniel provides comprehensive capacity-building support to grantees, community partners, and collaboratives within The Giving Lab. This includes personal and professional development, operational planning, business strategy, and stakeholder engagement.
Daniel excels at managing complex partnerships, cultivating trust-based relationships, and aligning diverse interests toward shared goals with Impact on Urban Health Air pollution strand. His strengths lie in creating robust learning ecosystems, feedback loops, and continuous improvement processes to drive sustained impact, as he is doing with Elephant and Castle Business Forum, supporting them with their BIDS proposal by embedding a social impact lens. With a keen ability to translate vision into actionable roadmaps, I am passionate about amplifying the strengths and potential of mission-driven organisations and initiatives.
