Are you a trusts, grants, or major donor fundraiser that’s looking for a way to define success, increase your impact, and reduce your workload?

The Trusts and Major Donor conference is back for another year of shared learning, case studies, and best practice to help you focus on the areas that will help you succeed.

Join us for an afternoon of top quality, ONLINE TRAINING to:

    • Feel inspired to start or scale a major donor programme (even if you feel like you’re lacking connections)
    • Build both your prospect pipeline and a more inclusive and ethical fundraising practice (win-win!)
    • Listen in on conversations with both funders and fundraisers to hear about the challenges they’re facing (and the solutions they’re coming up with)
    • Supercharge your internal relationships for better-crafted proposals and use AI to your advantage
    • Define success in the new normal and make the most of the opportunities in front of you

Sessions

Room 1

The anatomy of a successful funding proposal
Speaker: Rachel Cross, Lime Green Consulting

While online application forms come with their own frustrations, sometimes writing a funding proposal from scratch is even harder. What should we include? How long should it be? How to structure it? We’ll talk you through our tried-and-tested approach for writing a funding proposal that does your work justice and stands out from the crowd.

1. How to structure a funding proposal when the funder doesn’t give you many guidelines.
2. The most important content to include in a funding proposal when space is limited.
3. How to tailor your funding proposals to make them stand out and show you’re a good match for the funder.

 

Room 2

Creative Writing for Fundraisers
Speaker: Jessica Shipp, OSCAR’s Charity

An interactive session on creative writing.

I will lead attendees through easy, manageable, five minute exercises.

An opportunity to lighten the mood and reinvigorate the joy of writing.

No writing experience necessary. I will guide you every step of the way.

A chance to steer clear of the bland data, facts and figures and just focus on the flow and magic of the mind.

Please bring a blank piece of paper and your favourite writing tool (pen or pencil).

Key learnings from this session:

  • Develop confidence in creative writing regardless of experience level
  • Discover how to tap into imagination
  • Experience how free writing can generate fresh fundraising ideas and approaches
  • Develop a personal writing style that can make your proposals stand out
  • Take away practical exercises that can be used for team building and idea generation.
