Welcome to the world’s most respected and in-depth high value training programme in grantseeking. For experienced fundraisers we offer a fresh and innovative approach. For new fundraisers we provide a comprehensive toolkit for a successful career in grantseeking. Since 2013, staff from over 300 organisations have attended this programme, including The British Museum, Christian Aid, Child Bereavement UK, Opera North and Leonard Cheshire. Previous programmes have spawned ongoing and long-term peer support networks.
