Request for Proposals: Fundraising Strategy and Bid Template Development

Parish of St Mary’s and St James, NW6 London

1. Introduction

The Parish of St Mary’s and St James, located in NW6, London, is seeking to appoint an experienced fundraising professional to develop a comprehensive fundraising strategy and bid-writing template to support essential large scale capital repair projects at both church buildings.

The appointed consultant will produce a clear, actionable, and sustainable fundraising plan that draws on multiple funding streams — including grants, partnerships, individual giving, digital fundraising, and community events — while ensuring both projects progress cohesively and without internal competition for resources.

2. Project Background

The parish comprises two Grade II listed churches, both of which are active places of worship and important community landmarks within West Hampstead and South Hampstead.

St Mary’s Church

St Mary’s is a Grade II listed building, constructed in 1856-1862, and currently listed on the Historic England “At Risk” Register. The church requires urgent repair works to its spire, estimated at £1.5 million, alongside further essential maintenance identified in the quinquennial inspection. As a historic and much-loved building, St Mary’s preservation is a key priority for the parish and local community.

St James Church

Built in 1887–8 and designed by A.W. Blomfield, St James Church is also Grade II listed. The large red-brick structure, with steeply pitched tiled roofs and Bath stone dressings, is a notable local landmark and the only listed building within the South Hampstead Conservation Area. Camden Council’s Conservation Area Appraisal describes it as “a very important part of the quality and character of the area.”

St James is recognised nationally as a model of how historic churches can be adapted for sustainable use. Reopened in 2014 as The Sherriff Centre, it combines traditional worship with a thriving community and social enterprise hub — including a Post Office, soft play centre, café, retail space, and event venue.

St James now faces essential capital repairs to its roof, guttering, and masonry, as identified by its quinquennial inspection.

Fundraising Objective

Although St Mary’s and St James are distinct buildings, the parish seeks a single, unified fundraising strategy that will enable both capital projects to move forward in tandem, sharing messaging and timelines to avoid competition for funding opportunities.

3. Scope of Work

The consultant will produce a detailed and actionable fundraising strategy and a skeleton bid-writing template to support the parish in delivering its capital repair objectives.

A. Fundraising Strategy

The strategy should cover five core fundraising areas, each with specific recommendations, timelines, and success measures:

  1. Grant Applications to Trusts and Foundations
    • Identification of suitable capital funders, including National Lottery Heritage programmes and major charitable trusts.
  2. Corporate Partnerships
    • Identification of potential local business partners with corporate social responsibility programmes.
  3. Individual Giving
    • Recommendations for regular giving schemes, major donor cultivation, and legacy giving programmes.
  4. Digital Fundraising
    • Plans for social media campaigns, crowdfunding, and email marketing.
    • Recommendations for digital platforms, messaging, and performance tracking.
  5. Community Fundraising Events
    • Framework for community-focused events to engage local audiences and raise funds.

B. Skeleton Bid Template

An editable bid-writing template will be created to assist the parish with future applications. This will include:

  • Core content sections (e.g., project summary, need, impact, budget, sustainability).
  • Example text and guidance notes.
  • Style and structure recommendations for clarity and professionalism.

4. Deliverables

  • Comprehensive Fundraising Strategy Document covering both churches.
  • Action Plan with timelines and priority recommendations.
  • Skeleton Bid Template

5. Experience and Expertise

The appointed consultant should demonstrate:

  • Proven success in fundraising for capital projects involving heritage buildings, ideally churches or places of worship.
  • Experience in heritage and conservation funding, including the National Lottery Heritage Fund.
  • Demonstrable ability to develop multi-strand fundraising strategies integrating grants, individuals, corporate, and community income.
  • Excellent bid writing and stakeholder engagement skills.

6. Submission Requirements

Interested applicants are invited to submit a CV and covering letter including:

  1. Experience and Suitability
    • Overview of relevant professional experience, especially in heritage or faith-based fundraising.
    • Examples of similar projects delivered.
  2. Evidence of Fundraising Success
    • Quantifiable results (e.g., funds raised, funders secured, capital projects delivered).
    • References or testimonials if available.
  3. Delivery Plan and Fee Proposal
    • Estimated number of days required.
    • Fee proposal, including day rate and any additional costs.
    • Proposed timeline for completion.
