Keswick Ministries

Over three weeks each summer, the Keswick Convention is attended by over 12,000 people from churches across Britain. House was approached by the trustees to help turn annual attendees into committed supporters. The Convention’s objective was to raise funds to purchase an abandoned factory site in Keswick, in order to provide a new home for the Convention and help regenerate this popular Lake District town. We created a stakeholder engagement programme, and launched an integrated fundraising strategy which resulted in newly engaged supporters pledging over half a million pounds in its first few weeks. House also created new corporate collateral to better reflect Keswick Ministries and its renewed growth strategy.

“Working with House has been a thoroughly enjoyable experience! They were asked to help with high level communications and resources for a new Keswick and provided an excellent brochure and DVD, a survey process with wise advice for supporter relations and engagement. They have also produced first rate corporate collateral -an introduction to our work, which exactly reflects our ethos.House has a clear desire to understand our organisation’s values and ethos, which included a welcome interrogation, a willingness to listen carefully, and a wise set of conclusions; -they are bright, informed, personable and deliver a strong result.”
