Day one (Thursday, 1st June 2017) will comprise of a grants workshop which will give participants the opportunity to expand their ideas on available funding sources, and investigate what funders want to achieve when they hand over money. Participants will then develop a strategic approach to writing applications.
Day two (Thursday, 29th June 2017) will consist of a follow-up bid writing retreat, where one-to-one support will be available to develop applications for funding.
All academics and researchers are welcome to attend but as places are limited we ask that participants must be available to attend both days, and have a funding application they plan to submit within 12 months. The application can be to any funder.
