Template: Grant funding

Funding grants ensure that charities can continue providing much-needed services. Over the past few years, however, funding grants have become fiercely competitive, with less options around and increasing demand due to the impact of the pandemic.

Charities are competing with lots of other people, so it’s essential that they put together the best possible grant funding application. You need to ensure you get all the basics right, plug any potential gaps in knowledge, answer all questions with evidence-based answers, provide realistic budget requests and timescales, and much more.

Our template aims to help. We want to help with preparation, covering four key stages of the grant funding application process. The template looks at the following:

• Researching the fund and the funders
• Writing the bid
• Budget and timescale
• Post-application
