This 2.5-hour online workshop is designed for small organisations and community groups who are new to bid writing. It will support you in shaping and clarifying your project idea, exploring it with others, and gaining confidence in presenting it to funders. You'll work through a simple, structured template in a supportive and interactive environment that helps you organise your thinking and refine your approach.
The session also offers a valuable chance to network, ask questions, and receive feedback ahead of the funding fair—so you can make the most of your time with funders and be better prepared to apply for funding. It’s especially helpful for early-stage project development.
A unique feature of the workshop is the peer-coaching circle, where you step back and listen as others discuss your project. As a result, you get fresh insights, deeper clarity, and new ideas. Our facilitated session is a welcoming, generative space for learning and collaboration – a great place to be and to network.
This session will take place virtually on 15th September from 10:00 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.
