Three New Offers to Help You
Fundraise With Confidence
What would make you feel more confident in your fundraising?
We know times are tough and that those responsible for fundraising can feel like they’re carrying the weight of their organisation on their shoulders. With so much pressure you want to feel confident you’re making the right decisions and that you’re doing everything you can to maximise your chances of success.
That’s why we’ve introduced three new services designed to boost your fundraising confidence and ensure you’re on the right track:
The Art of Fundraising - Online Arts Fundraising Training Courses
Are you looking to build your fundraising skills? After 8+ years delivering fundraising training for other networks and sector support organisations (such as Museum Development networks, Theatres Trust and local CVS groups) we're now making our "engaging", "insightful" and "inspiring" training courses available to everybody.
All of our courses are designed specifically for arts, culture and heritage fundraisers. We draw on the latest research and best practice, case studies and examples from a wide range of cultural organisations and our vast experience of fundraising in the arts and culture sector to create courses that are practical and relevant.
Between January and February we'll be running our "The Art of Fundraising" series of online training workshops, covering grant fundraising, fundraising from audiences and visitors, major gift fundraising and legacies.
While developed as a series the workshops also work as standalone sessions. So, whether you book for one course or all four you'll leave with more insight, more confidence and more ideas that you can implement within your own organisation.
Upcoming Dates:
- The Art of Grant Fundraising - Thursday 16th January 2025, 10am - 1pm
- The Art of Fundraising from Your Audience and Visitors - Thursday January 30th 2025, 10am - 1pm
- The Art of Major Gift Fundraising - Thursday 13th February 2025, 10am - 1pm
- The Art of Legacy Fundraising - Thursday 27th February 2025, 10am - 1pm
Price: £95 per person per course
Proposal Review Service
Would you like to feel more confident in the funding proposals you're submitting? Our Proposal Review Service gives you the chance to get bespoke, honest, practical feedback on your grant applications before you click 'submit'. Drawing on our years of experience on both sides of the grant-making process, we've developed a number of exercises to test how easy it is for grant makers to read, understand and, ultimately, fund your proposal. Having reviewed your proposal we'll arrange a call to talk through our recommendations and discuss possible ways you could strengthen it.
Price: £150 for short proposals (1-3 pages), £300 for longer proposals (4-10 pages)
Fundraising Health Check
How confident are you that your fundraising is on the right path and that everything is running as smoothly as it could?
Our Fundraising Health Check is an independent assessment of your fundraising activity. It’s designed to diagnose any underlying issues and risks in either your strategy or your implementation so you can move forward effectively, efficiently and with confidence.
Our Fundraising Health Check focuses on two key areas:
- Your Strategy – Does your fundraising strategy represent the most effective and efficient way to achieve your goals?
- Your Implementation – Do you have the resources, infrastructure, skills and internal processes required to turn your strategy into reality? Are there any barriers or blockages standing in your way?
At the end of the audit you'll receive a Diagnostics Report, outlining what’s working, what can be improved, and any foreseeable opportunities, risks and challenges on the horizon.
Price: from £2,450
