Welcome to Project: Community 

I’m Hannah Hodgson, Founder and Director of Project: Community 

I work directly with sports clubs and social enterprises across my hometown of Stockport,  supporting you to frame your vision and goals, identify your community and establish their needs, so you can tell your story, access funding and develop projects that deliver positive impact.

Based in Marple, I provide specialist support in the following ways:

FUNDING SUPPORT £250 day rate

Reviewing and updating your Club Fundraising Strategy and helping you to identify income streams

Researching suitable grant funding opportunities for your defined projects

Support and writing of funding bids

CLUB DEVELOPMENT £250 day rate

Reviewing your Club Development Plan

Advising and supporting on ways to increase membership, income and community engagement

3 MONTH MENTORING PACKAGE  £750 

3 x 1.5 hr monthly mentoring meetings, face to face or online. Delivered over three months with goal setting and actions for you to undertake in between. An individually tailored plan which typically will include:

Support and Guidance in identifying your community and its needs

Getting your governance house in order

Goal Setting: What will things look like in three months’ time?

Get fit for funding!

Project planning tools and set up for tracking of project funds

How will you measure impact? What will it look like?

WHY WORK WITH ME?

I only work with projects I feel invested in; your outcomes and impact matter to me.

The focus should never be on the amount of funding you can get, it’s about establishing need and achieving impact. Working with me you will identify your community and their needs, and I’ll help you tell your story so that funders will hear and understand, and want to be part of your club.

I am transparent. You simply pay for the time I work with you, on the services we have agreed. I would NEVER charge a commission; that money is yours to make a difference.

My results speak for themselves. I am involved with many fantastic projects and witness the impact they are having on communities across Stockport. But don’t take my word for it! I am a proud winner of a Women Changemakers of the North Award for my community project work during the pandemic. I am commissioned by Proper Good to deliver mentoring and small group support to social enterprises. I sit on the funding assessment panel for Sport England’s Together Fund. I have vast experience of sports development, governance and social enterprises.

Working with Project: Community will free up your time to carry out the tasks you are great at, and help your organisation to plan and achieve your goals more quickly.

If you would like to work with me please make contact and we can see if we’re a good fit for each other.
