Evidence of need for a project forms an important part of our assessment. You must be able to clearly demonstrate why your project is needed…..
We have found that evidencing need is something that applicants often struggle with, and a lack of evidence is a common reason for rejection' (from the Big lottery funding Fact sheet)
Sometimes telling a funder about the positive feedback you have received from speaking with clients is not enough. A funder is totally dependent on the information you put on your application form and insufficient evidence of need can lead to a rejection of your application.
Want to strengthen your application?
This half-day workshop will provide you with methods and tools to gather primary and secondary evidence proportional to the size of your organisation and scale of your project.
This course is part of our holistic fundraising support programme covering the major stages of grant applications, which will take you through an insightful and interactive journey of the key elements that form a successful funding bid. Our training programme is series of master classes and bite size workshops including evidencing the need for your project, creating project budgets, meeting the funders and much, much more. It is an opt in or opt out programme where you can either attend all or some of the elements that you are interested in. We are extremely limited for places so secure your seat before it is too late!
