In today’s tough economic climate, it is more important than ever that any funding opportunities are taken advantage of, and that organisations are giving themselves the best chance possible by making good funding applications. This members’ session will take you through the important steps in making a good funding case and will look at: proving the need for the project through social research; tools used in planning your project; finding a suitable funder and creating a realistic project budget. 

A number of funders have fed back to NICVA that these areas are the most common shortcomings in the funding applications they receive, and therefore this free training session will help your organisation make a better funding bid.

This event is aimed at anyone who is either partly or wholly responsible for building a fundraising strategy for their organisation, or who has an interest in this area. The session will be particularly suited to organisations that are currently seeking funding for a project or want to diversify their funding base.

The event is free for NICVA members (one free place per organisation only, extra delegate rate £30 per person) and £70 for non members.  

Please download and complete a booking form and return it to Georgie Finlay by Friday 24 September 2010 (please enclose a cheque, if appropriate, made payable to NICVA).
