Funding & Sponsorship

Obtaining Funding & Sponsorship

Thinking of making a funding application? Or need to attract some grant aid or corporate sponsorship? We've years of experience that makes the process easier and enhances your chances of success. We may even consider a no win, no fee deal for many community or charity led projects.

We can provide advice on a huge range of grant aid sources and sponsorship available for any environmental, heritage, amenity or land management initiatives.

Across the team we've played a part in successfully gaining more than £4.5 million since 2000. So whatever the source of funding, Heritage Lottery Fund, Rural Development Agency funds, Aggregate Levy, even if it's not a source we've neccessarily dealt with before, we think we can help add value to any application.

Our ability to advise and suggest adaptations to projects that add value and help meet key funding criteria, and our experience in reporting to funding agencies during the management of projects means we can hold anyone's hand through the process. We'll also though be honest, and through our in-depth knowledge of many funding sources, advise you very quickly if we feel your chances are modest or your project/initiative can't be easily adapted to match with appropriate funding sources.

Giving Funding & Sponsorship

We also pride ourselves on having run past funding programmes, and members of our team have in addition, held seats on regional grant-making bodies and committees. We can therefore help you administer local funding or sponsorship programmes if you wish to be seen supporting local communities, groups and important projects.

We'll also ensure that the projects you support attract a suitable level of PR and media coverage so that the impact of your support is widely acknolwedged and appreciated.
