es, we cover both major national pots and regional trusts. We specialise in major national funders like the National Lottery Community Fund (Awards for All & Reaching Communities), Arts Council England, and Sport England. Crucially, because we are Yorkshire-based, we also navigate the local funding landscape, supporting bids for Leeds City Council, Bradford Council, and regional trusts like the Brelms Trust and South Yorkshire Community Foundation.

We do not work on a commission basis. As proud members of the Chartered Institute of Fundraising (CIOF), we adhere to ethical guidelines that strongly discourage "no-win, no-fee" models, and most grant funders strictly prohibit paying consultants from awarded funds. Instead, we offer transparent, fixed-fee pricing starting at just £195 for a review or £350/day for outsourced writing. You get expert help without hidden fees or inflated "London agency" rates.

Two simple reasons: Local insight and your budget. National agencies often charge £600+ per day and use generic templates. As local specialists, we offer affordable, fixed-fee support and write compelling narratives tailored to your specific community—because we know a project in Bradford requires a different approach than one in Hebden Bridge. Plus, we offer face-to-face meetings across Leeds, Sheffield, Wakefield, and Huddersfield. Book your discovery call now. It is a free 15min, no commitment conversation.

The UK funding landscape is incredibly competitive, and no honest consultant can guarantee a 100% win rate. Funders' priorities change, and pots run dry. However, we drastically maximize your chances. Led by a former grant panellist, we know exactly what decision-makers look for. We guarantee a highly competitive, compliant, and compelling bid. If a bid is rejected, we don't run away; we help you decipher the feedback and refine it for resubmission.

Timelines depend on the complexity of the fund. If you already have a draft and just need our Grant Review service, we offer a 48-hour turnaround. For full Outsourced Grant Writing on multi-year bids (like Reaching Communities), the process usually takes 2 to 4 weeks to allow for thorough discovery, collaborative drafting, and budget alignment.

We don't expect you to have everything perfect on day one! Generally, we will need your latest accounts, safeguarding policies, a clear project budget, and any evidence of local need (such as case studies or community surveys). During our initial Discovery Meeting, we will guide you through exactly what is missing and help you pull the raw materials together.

You do not need to be a registered charity to win grant funding! We support a massive variety of non-profits across Yorkshire, including Community Interest Companies (CICs), Charitable Incorporated Organisations (CIOs), sports clubs, and unconstituted community groups. As long as your project benefits the local public, there is likely a funding pot out there for you.

We absolutely help with core funding. While many funders prefer to back specific new projects, there are funds dedicated to organizational resilience, unrestricted funding, and core running costs (like rent, utilities, and core salaries). We can help you identify these specific funders or expertly weave your core cost recovery into larger project budgets using full-cost recovery principles.

To apply for most grants, you need a few basics in place: a governing document (like a constitution or articles of association), a minimum of two or three unrelated board members, and a dedicated organizational bank account in the name of your group. If you have those, you are ready to start! If not, our Grant Training workshop is the perfect place to learn exactly how to build a strong, fundable foundation.

Yes! Securing the grant is only the beginning. If you don't have the internal capacity to manage the end-of-grant reporting and impact evaluation, we can support you. This is often included as part of our Writing Retainer service for growing charities, ensuring you maintain a brilliant relationship with the funder for future applications."
