Manchester Community Central & Royal Literary Fund: Writing fundraising applications

Manchester Community Central is pleased to partner with the Royal Literary Fund to deliver this workshop for city of Manchester based VCSE groups.

Writing grant applications and funding bids is challenging and time consuming. This online workshop will guide you through the process of project planning while helping you to understand the key principles of writing applications and avoiding commonly made mistakes.

Through writing exercises and discussion, you will explore:

• How to understand what funders want
• Interpreting funding criteria
• Clarifying your objectives and outcomes
• Developing a structured approach to planning, writing and editing a funding application.

This workshop is available to all voluntary, community & social enterprise (VCSE) organisations working in the city of Manchester.
