Bid Writing: The Basics
Online via ZOOM 

COST £95.00

TOPICS COVERED

Do you know the most common reasons for rejection? Are you gathering the right 
evidence? Are you making the right arguments? Are you using the right 
terminology? Are your numbers right? Are you learning from rejections? Are you 
assembling the right documents? Do you know how to create a clear and concise 
standard funding bid?

Are you communicating with people or just excluding them? Do you know your own 
organisation well enough? Are you thinking through your projects carefully 
enough? Do you know enough about your competitors? Are you answering the 
questions funders will ask themselves about your application? Are you 
submitting applications correctly?

PARTICIPANTS  

Staff members, volunteers, trustees or board members of charities, schools, not 
for profits or public sector organisations who intend to submit grant funding 
applications to charitable grant making trusts and foundations. People who 
provide advice to these organisations are also welcome.

COST £95.00

TOPICS COVERED

Are you applying to the right trusts? Are you applying to enough trusts? Are 
you asking for the right amount of money? Are you applying in the right ways? 
Are your projects the most fundable projects? 

Are you carrying out trust fundraising in a professional way? Are you 
delegating enough work? Are you highly productive or just very busy? Are you 
looking for trusts in all the right places? 

How do you compare with your competitors for funding? Is the rest of your 
fundraising hampering your bids to trusts? Do you understand what trusts are 
ideally looking for?

FEEDBACK FROM PAST ATTENDEES AT LIVE WORKSHOPS 
I must say I was really impressed with the course and the content. My knowledge 
and confidence has increased hugely. I got a lot from your course and a lot of 
pointers! 
I can say after years of fundraising I learnt so much from your bid writing 
course. It was a very informative day and for someone who has not written bids 
before I am definitely more confident to get involved with them. 
I found the workshops very helpful. It is a whole new area for me but the 
information you imparted has given me a lot of confidence with the direction I 
need to take and for that I am very grateful.  
I found the day very informative and it gave me confidence to take on this 
aspect of work that I had been apprehensive of.  I enjoyed the session and 
found it valuable. 
So much relevant, practical information all passed on in a way which I was able 
to follow. All greatly enhanced by your sense of humour. 
It was a useful course and your examples real or otherwise helped to make it 
practical. Many thanks. The morning just flew by - always a good sign! I 
enjoyed the course and learnt a lot. I will begin putting this into practice.
