Writing a grant application
Preparation is the key to success…
Know your project:
What do you need the money for?
Who does your project benefit? (the stakeholders)
How much money do you need?

Research different funders...
What organisations are offering funding?
Who funds the type of project you are developing?
How do you make an application?
Make a list of potential funders

Check that you & your project are eligible
What area do they cover?
What types of project to they fund / not fund?
How much money does the funder offer?
When is the deadline?

What to do if your grant application is unsuccessful...
