I offer mentoring, training or in-depth support to help you grow your trusts fundraising. See below for more details, including my new Trust Fundraising in a Box self-paced course and toolkit.
My mentoring programme includes a monthly video call as well as ongoing email support - providing advice, application reviews and importantly, accountability to push forward with your trust fundraising.
I love helping small charities unlock new income from grants! I can help your organisation get started with the building blocks of trust fundraising - including prospect research, building your case for support, application development, and donor cultivation and stewardship. I can also provide interim support if you have an established trusts and foundations programme but a gap in capacity.
Been fundraising from trusts for a while, but not sure if you’re doing the right things? Having success, want to grow income further, but unclear where to improve? Or maybe you just aren’t getting the results you expected. Through a fundraising healthcheck I can provide an all round audit of your trusts fundraising with recommendations for improvements.
Self-paced course and toolkit for small charities
This online course and toolkit provides all you need to kickstart a successful trust fundraising programme in your small charity from scratch, yourself, without the need for external support.
I’ve taken well over a decade’s experience of setting up trusts fundraising for many small organisations, and distilled it into this self-paced course. It’s specifically designed for small charity people who know that trusts and foundations are an untapped income source, but aren’t sure where to start!
It includes step-by-step video and written guides to support you through each stage of setting up trust fundraising in your organisation, as well as excel and word templates for all the documents and spreadsheets you’ll need.
Trust Fundraising in a Box will build your knowledge, keeping you focused and making sure you have the right foundations in place for successful grants fundraising - to use your time most effectively and put you in the best possible position to secure income from grants.
