Who we are

GMH Sports Consultancy is led by Graham Herstell MA, FHEA — 25 years in UK sport and education, working with sports organisations from community clubs through to professional clubs and academies. We help organisations run well, fund themselves sustainably and show the value they bring to their communities.

What we do

Organisational sustainability

Governance, structure and long-term planning that keep an organisation resilient — including environmental and event sustainability, and impact reporting that leaves a measurable legacy.

Funding strategy and support

The funding landscape is crowded and confusing. We help organisations identify the right sources, build a realistic funding plan and put forward strong, evidence-led applications.

Social value and impact

Robust, evidence-based statements of what an organisation is worth to its community — for funders, councils, sponsors and partners.

Data, insight and digital

Turning membership, participation and performance data into decisions, and guiding organisations through digital changes they can actually maintain.

Education, delivery and quality assurance

25 years designing, delivering and quality-assuring sports education and training — coach education, assessment and QA that stand up to scrutiny, for clubs, academies, professional clubs and training providers.

Resources

Practical planning resourcesWe publish a small set of planning tools for the organisations we work with. Access is by invitation — ask when you get in touch.
