Free in-person workshop. Learn how to write winning funding bids, find new grant opportunities and secure the money your organisation needs.

Funding is out there. The question is...does your application stand out enough to get it?

This autumn, iSE is hosting its biggest in-person event of the year. A free, practical Funding and Bid Writing Masterclass created to give organisations across the West Midlands the skills, knowledge and confidence to write stronger funding applications and secure the investment they need to grow.

Whether you have never written a funding bid before or you have submitted applications and not heard back, this workshop will change how you approach funding for good.

What you will learn:

How to identify the right funding opportunities for your organisation, what funders are really looking for in a successful application, how to structure a bid that stands out from the crowd, common mistakes that get applications rejected and how to avoid them, practical techniques for writing compelling funding narratives, and how to demonstrate impact in a way that resonates with grant-making bodies.

Our speaker

We are bringing in a specialist guest speaker with extensive experience in funding strategy and bid writing across the West Midlands. Speaker details will be announced shortly, register now to be the first to hear who it is and secure your place before they are gone.

This session is for you if:

You lead or work within a social enterprise, community organisation, charity, CIC or small business in the West Midlands and you want to improve your chances of securing funding, write more compelling grant applications, or simply understand the funding landscape better.

This is a practical, hands-on session...not a presentation you sit and watch. Come ready to work, ask questions and leave with tools you can use immediately.

This is iSE's first large-scale in-person event of the autumn and places will go fast.

Register now to secure your spot. This event is completely free.

Supported by West Midlands Combined Authority (WMCA).
