WINNING GRANT APPLICATIONS

If you only start thinking about winning a grant when the call for applications is announced, you are probably too late.

With some grant rounds giving as little as six weeks’ notice, your only chance of success is to have thought and planned ahead.

The aim of this half-day workshop is to provide advice and guidance on how to improve your chance of success by carefully targeting the right funding body, sell your idea and write the grant with an efficient process.
