If the process of ACE funding feels daunting, then I could not recommend Hannah enough. They discussed the process clearly in depth and gave some invaluable tips and advice on where to begin as well as where best to strengthen the application. They ensured that all my questions were answered and I feel that I now have a good understanding of how to begin. Thank you.
Alex Lyons, Artist & Researcher
Working with Hannah on improving my unsuccessful ACE application was so beneficial. She helped to de mystify the process, and pointed out words and phrases to use - to make my bid more robust. And how to clearly make the case for the value of my project. She read through my application, gave written feedback, and we spoke for an hour via Zoom. All very helpful. I feel confident now to re-apply... ASAP!
Wendy Errington, Playwright & Theatremaker
Hannah was brilliant: giving supportive, clear and direct feedback that I could apply immediately. She was adaptable to what was needed and I felt a lot more comfortable in submitting after our chat!
Ruth Phillips, Director & Movement Director
I’ve worked with Hannah on two applications - one Project Grant and one Developing Your Creative Practice. Hannah is such a joy to work with. They have a clear, generous and communicative approach to support work. I have felt held and grounded in a difficult process of proposal writing, and they’ve been reassuring in my moments of anxiety about the process. Hannah is incredibly efficient and diligent with their work. They are a really good listener and have the dramaturgical skills needed to quickly gain a strong understanding of the work and ethos of the artist. Hannah has also had some really creative and helpful ideas about how I navigate my access needs within the scope of the project. I’d work with Hannah again in a heartbeat!
Tash Hyman, Director & Dramaturg
Hannah really helped to demystify the application process, giving clear, easy to understand, and encouraging feedback and advice to improve our bid. She was kind, enthusiastic, and extraordinarily helpful - it's safe to say we wouldn't have gotten the funding without her! If you're writing a funding bid and need a bit of help, don't hesitate to get in touch with Hannah; you won't regret it.
Jack Fairey, Writer & Director
Hannah the ACE whisperer! Such a beacon of light in the face of bureaucracy and questions that are outrageously alike! Hannah is great with structure, squeezing in as much information as possible and is honest and amusing in her feedback. I felt much more equipped to get what was in my head onto paper and in the order that ACE wanted. My motto became ‘what would Hannah do?’
