If you are a heritage trust or charity, or considering a heritage project for the first time, we can help you to raise funds and deliver successful projects, whether through the National Lottery Heritage Fund, another programme or directly.
At Eastside Primetimers we are experienced in the design and delivery of projects that win support from the National Lottery Heritage Fund (NHLF), Architectural Heritage Fund (AHF), the National Lottery Heritage Fund (NLHF) and many other foundations and funds that support the sector.
Members of our team have managed Heritage Lottery Fund projects at a senior level and are currently helping to steer and support projects across the country, from the Isle of Wight to the north of England. We have experts in options appraisal, asset transfer, audience and business development, visitor experience, financial modelling, fundraising, capital project management and social enterprise.
We are also able to draw on a talent pool of consultants in everything from high street regeneration to market research, partner development and social impact management. This means expert project teams can be assembled to support the local and particular needs of any heritage client.
We are particularly well-placed to assist projects which are setting out to reverse the decline of the high street and wish to approach NLHF or AHF Transforming Places through Heritage funds for this purpose.
