Sport Lottery Fund

The changing nature of the funding regimes, increasingly competitive selection criteria and the impact of the 2012 London Olympics on Lottery Funding are resulting in fewer and fewer successful applications. Give your organisation the best possible chance of success by retaining us to handle your application for you. We can prepare your application and manage the whole process including feasibility studies, business planning and public consultation. Our architects and technical specialists can deal with all your design and development issues.

Our most recent assignments….

• Westfield Community School located in Hertfordshire retained us to prepare a Phase 1 lottery bid for a 6-court sports hall, dance studio, health and fitness suite and ancillary facilities. Hertfordshire County Council then retained Bayer Consulting to co-ordinate the preparation of the Phase 2 lottery bid. In a climate where Lottery Funds are increasingly hard to come by, the Lottery Panel made an award of £1.7 million.
  
  
• We were retained by the London Borough of Hillingdon to help prepare bids to the Sport Lottery and Heritage Lottery funds to support the £25m Hillingdon House Farm Development in Uxbridge. The scheme consisted of a 50 metre indoor pool, a sports hall, a health and fitness complex and an athletics stadium. One of the few remaining lidos in the Country will also be restored and brought back into operational use. Faulkner Browns were the retained Architects.
