Building your confidence in securing and managing grant income.
Grants can play a big role in supporting the work of shelters and rehoming organisations. If you’re looking to strengthen or diversify your income, understanding how grant fundraising works is a great place to start.
This online half‑day session gives you a clear introduction to grants fundraising. You’ll learn what a grant is, how the grant cycle works and how to spot opportunities that are right for your organisation. We’ll walk through different types of applications and what funders expect to see in a strong submission.
You’ll also explore the basics of managing a grant once you’ve secured it, from meeting reporting requirements to building positive relationships with funders. Everything is designed to help you feel more confident, whatever the size or experience level of your organisation.
