We will operate a waiting list if we reach this number, and may ask hospices with more than one sign-up to release places.

In this session we look at those foundational criteria essential to setting your organisation up for a win and tips how to find the best grants. This session is less appropriate for those with mature grant funding programmes. By the end of this session, we aim for you to: · Gain insight into the overall process of grants funding · Understand what fundraisers need to know before writing applications · See how to cost effectively find funders David describes himself as a “product of small charities”.

In early 2022, David joined the FSI and re-built their partnership training programme, carrying it forward in his own style with Triceratops Training after the closure of the previous charity. Most of our associate trainers, like David, were also training or consultancy associates for the FSI, NCVO, Lloyds Bank Foundation or DSC. David currently leads training programmes with Battersea Dogs & Cats Home, several funders, CVS and other sector infrastructure organisations across the UK.
