Writing bids & fundraising workshop

fundraisingFundraising skills and individual advice for faith-based groups here in London – ideal for beginners and upgraders.

FbRN welcomes LBFN friends to its Vauxhall offices at 308 Kennington Lane, London, SE11 5HY on Tuesday 13 May.  Registration from 1.00pm, workshop 1.30-4.30pm. Followed by tea/refreshments and an opportunity to network with participants and FbRN staff.

“Money is tight these days. But there are sources of funds around and with a well written bid, they are not impossible to get. Often we limit ourselves because we haven’t got time or we find the whole bid-writing process too difficult. This workshop will take participants through the process of writing a well constructed bid. We will be looking at the Awards for All scheme as an example, but the skills will apply to any funding bid.

The workshop will be led by Mohammed Mamdani who is the founder and director of Al-Mizan Charitable Trust and a trustee of FbRN. He has 12 years’ experience in supporting small, grassroots charities with fundraising, project management and governance.  The workshop costs £5 to cover admin and refreshment costs but FbRN requests a refundable deposit of £25. Payment of £30 to be made in advance and £25 refunded after attendance.”
