We are really pleased to tell you that we have once again been able to help Staffordshire youth football charity ‘Ladsandads’ secure more sports grants. This time funding has been awarded by both the Red Industries Landfill Community Fund and the Football Foundation.
The funding which totals £51,550 will be used to purchase new grounds maintenance equipment incuding a seeder, slitter and assorted attachments. Whilst the brand new equipment will be based at Ladsandads Trubshaw Cross site, which was the key focus of the bids. When its not needed there it will be used at the other sites this dynamic charity now operates across North Staffordshire. In this way literally thousands of children and young people will benefit from greatly improved natural turf football facilites to play on each season long into the future.
With dedicated volunteers, great facilities and quality coaching from Ladsandads football fans should look out for another future football star to emerge from the area!
Ladsandads certainly have a great track record in producing talented players including the above and this investment can only help!
HeawardSports Ltd is a company I have worked with on several projects now and I have found that they...
Andrew taught me so much when it came to capital projects. I enjoyed working alongside him during the renovation of the Wallace Centre, which went on to be a hugely successful project. Highly recommended.
I would encourage any charity, CIC or any organisation whose mission is to make a difference to get in touch with Andrew. From accessing grant funding to crowdfunding or sponsorship, Andrew's experience will be invaluable to your organisation.
Heaward Solutions has provided bid writing support for two charities I've been involved with, both focused on developing young people, but of different sizes, staff teams, and priorities. Their support has enabled some crucial successes that we'll build upon to grow and develop our work. What they do well enables us to focus on the work we do well, genuine partnership working.
I had the distinct pleasure of working with Andrew Heaward on two successful rounds of grant funding, and I am thrilled to offer my highest recommendation for him.
Andrew recently supported us with a large, multi-year bid for core funding for our charity. We have not worked with a bid writer before, and we were so glad we did, as thanks to Andrew's expert approach we seamlessly progressed to the stage 2 site visit, eventually securing over £120k.
Andrew has worked closely with the Senior Leaders of Burton YMCA in delivering a fundraising strategy. I would have no hesitation in recommending Andrew to any Business Leader or Charity Leader in developing and delivering a fundraising strategic programme that will help you and your organisation.
I've worked with Andrew on a recent fundraising project that has both generated significant income and raised awareness in our chosen market place. The resulting raised profile within our sector has meant that we are now experiencing far more inbound calls from the education sector with potential clients both wanting to talk to us and wanting to place orders. I can not praise Andrew and his team highly enough
Andrew was our fundraising consultant for a major capital project. His work was excellent throughout, starting with in-depth research of funding opportunities and then writing applications and other funding documents that really did the job. His knowledge was excellent, he was always available to give advice or make last-minute changes, and got a lot done in a quick time. Thoroughly recommended.
Andrew has been amazing, very professional, knowledgeable yet very realistic. He has provided 5* service in our opinion, and we are very looking forward to having Andrew support and guide us further in the coming months/years in this very exciting growth time of our organisation.
Their expertise in effective fundraising, strategy, monitoring and evaluation, management, and marketing has helped our charity maximise its impact and strengthen its ability to thrive. I am incredibly grateful for their knowledge, patience, and encouragement. I would highly recommend Heaward Solutions to any organisation seeking expert and compassionate support.
Heaward Solutions has consistently demonstrated an exceptional level of professionalism and expertise. They were instrumental in numerous successful funding bids. Their meticulous approach to funding research, and their ability to craft a comprehensive and effective fundraising strategy were particularly impressive. They are an outstanding partner for 4 Community Trust CIC.
