Grant Writing

I am highly experienced in grant writing and understand what funders expect from successful applicants. I work with organisations online and in person across the UK to develop strong, compelling project narratives and secure funding, including grants from the National Lottery Heritage Fund.

I offer a range of grant packages and bespoke services, tailored to your project’s needs, helping you from the initial development through to submission. My approach ensures applications are clear, well-structured, and aligned with funder requirements.

In addition, I offer a Heritage Surgery, giving organisations the opportunity to explore funding options, discuss project ideas, and receive practical advice before beginning the grant process.

Whether you need targeted guidance, full application support, or strategic advice, I work closely with you to shape your project and present it in the strongest possible way. Please feel free to contact me to discuss your specific project and explore funding opportunities.
