I’m guessing you might be here because you need some help raising money. I have over 20 years’ experience of fundraising and during that time I’ve written, and read, hundreds of grant applications. I’ve seen what works, and what doesn’t!
I don’t believe trust fundraising has to be complicated. It’s about creating the right project, crafting a compelling ask and presenting that information to the right funder, in the right format.
A directory of bid-writers and independent freelancers who are great at what they do - writing successful applications to trusts and foundations.
If you’re new to trust fundraising, I’ll help you get set up - we’ll create your fundraising toolkit with all the key documents you’ll need, research initial prospects, write your case for support and draft your first application.
If you’re already fundraising from trusts and foundations but are feeling frustrated with your results, I can review your pipeline and applications, then create a strategy to help your grow your income.
Need some help writing applications? If you don’t have the resources to employ a permanent fundraiser or if you need interim support whilst you’re recruiting, I offer three levels of support to help you get more applications out the door.
A step-by-step online course to take you through all the key elements of trust fundraising, from how to create your ‘ask’, how to research prospects, calculating targets, writing applications and what to do after you get that ‘yes’ to improve your results.
“I would highly recommend the course. I learnt a lot in a short space of time and now feel confident in researching and writing funding applications to trusts and foundations.”
