GRANT WRITING
Process: After initial free consultation, I would require information about your project that can be provided to be in the most convenient way for you, whether it is through bullet points, sharing information in voice notes, answering questions on a call or sharing all your documents about the project so far.
I would send the 1st draft for your revision and take all your feedback and suggestions to develop the second draft.
The second draft would be sent to you and my colleague for another set of eyes to flag any inconsistencies and check clarity.
When we are both happy I will upload to your Grantium account and submit upon another revision of the upload.
I often see artists being extremely passionate about their work and the creative idea behind it. It can be very inspirational and motivates me to help them adapt their language, shape their thoughts so that the applications are clearly answering the questions the funders are asking. With an over 68% success rate in 2024, raising over £500k, I am confident that I can reach them efficiently.
ACCESS SUPPORT
Arts Council England offers Access Support for applicants facing barriers in writing applications due to their physical health issues, mental health problems, Neurodivergence or those who are Deaf and disabled.
As an access support worker I adjust my way of working depending on your needs after our initial consultation.
I have worked with many artists who are living with dyslexia, dyscalculia, ADHD, autism, poor mental health, as well as those who are blind or visually impaired.
ARTS CONSULTANCY
There are so many elements that need to be put together for a good project that is attracting funders.
You have a great idea, consistent team and need funding to make it a reality. You are not sure how to go about environmental sustainability or if your workforce represents your target community. Use the consultancy as an opportunity to develop your project and scale it up so that it reaches more people effectively and makes it more fundable by different funders.
FUNDRAISING STRATEGY
Funding options in the UK are wide, but it depends on your organisational structure. I’ve been working on hundreds of fundraising strategies and I am aware of the majority of open funds out there.
Even with that knowledge and experience, it takes hours to do the research and find the perfectly aligned funders based on your targets.
We can work together on your long-term plan to make your organisation financially sustainable.
1:1 COACHING
This is an opportunity to raise your fundraising skills on a higher level by working with me on case studies, drafting applications and getting hands-on experience.
Allow yourself to upskill in areas that you think need addressing and ask questions, practice and learn from my experience and expertise.
