Funding search tips and resources

From: BCM

Your group has a project or activity in mind that requires funding – where do you start to look?

Before you even start the application process, how do you create a list of organisations to approach?

As a small organisation ourselves, all of our staff and volunteers have experience of raising funds. We also work with the expert team at Get Grants (www.getgrants.org.uk) to hold workshops on fundraising for small community organisations.

This blog post brings together some tips and ideas for searching for funders who would be interested in funding your work.

We are also always happy to look over funding applications before you submit them, or keep an eye on our Events page (or subscribe to our Eventbrite channel) for news about upcoming funding workshops.
