Spark proper change through joyful action
Hello! I’m Laura Precious… Development Consultant, Creative Catalyst and Leftfield Do Gooder
I have an obscene enthusiasm for making good things happen, alongside 20 years of experience in fundraising, development and turning wild hope and ideas into real-world projects.
I partner with secretly brilliant people, do good organisations, and optimistic collaborators to untangle ideas, shape plans, and help meaningful projects actually happen.
I believe with my whole heart that epic things are possible when we try. So if you’ve got a ‘what if’ or a ‘if only’…
Buckle up! Because we don’t have all the time in the world. We only have now.
And I’m here to turn that “what if?” into “LET’S GO!”
How can we work together?
Whatever stage you’re at, there are a few different ways we can work together.
Not sure where to start? That’s OK, we’ll figure it out together.
-
You’ve got ideas, questions or thoughts you can’t quite untangle, and you want help to get curious, explore possibilities and shape your next steps.
-
You’re ready to move things forward, a project, plan or funding application, and you want help to give it shape and structure, moving into action in days rather than months.
-
You’ve got a spark, a ‘what if’ or an ‘if only’…and you want a curious collaborator to explore it with enthusiasm or help bring it to life.

“Laura’s clear thinking and strategic ability always takes our bids to another level.
Her mindset is wonderfully creative, and she is adept at making you feel relaxed and focused he supported us with three critical bids - it was Laura’s expertise that showed us they were deliverable projects, and her thoughtful editing process gave the final push we needed to get the green light.”

She is by far the most talented bid writer I have ever worked with; her sunny disposition makes the process feel effortless and she has almost a 100% success rate for us. I hesitate to write this as I don’t want her getting booked up! Highly recommend.”
