After my own voluntary experience of saving Hastings Pier, I’m now involved in this kind of work all over the country (eg Ancoats Dispensary, London Road Fire Station, Bognor Pier, Colwyn Bay Pier, and all kinds of other difficult ones!). My specialism is ‘neighbourhood coaching’ on fundraising, organisational development and community engagement for ambitous projects like yours. I wonder if you already have advice from Locality or others and whether I could be of help?
If anyone from the group would like to arrange an initial phone chat please feel free to contact me.
