Last Wednesday we had the pleasure of hosting the Director of Leverhulme at Bournemouth.
Professor Anna Vignoles talked to us about the small but mighty team she leads (one of the most responsive funder teams), the Trust’s approach to funding and all the various funds they offer, gave us valuable insights and tips on making our cases heard at the applications and left us all inspired to think big.
Really important to hear from Funding leaders such as Anna during these difficult times for the sector and the high number of attendance made that very clear as well.
Please get in touch with the Research office if you have any ideas you wish to discuss, no matter how much out there your idea might be, you will get a sympathetic ear from us and support to find the most fitting funder.
Thanks to Anna and those who attended our session,
Eva
