Fundraising & Pitching Workshop: How to Tell Your Story

Edinburgh Social Enterprise

Edinburgh Social Enterprise presents a pitching and fundraising workshop for social enterprises in Edinburgh.

Greyfriars Charteris Centre

Have you ever wondered what it’s like to regularly review grant proposals from non-profit organisations? The overwhelming majority of the proposals that cross reviewers’ desks are dry, didactic, filled with statistics, and repetitive.In today’s ever worsening fundraising environment how do you stand out from the crowd, bring the application to life and be memorable to the grant maker?This session will present approaches to personalise your grant applications through stories, case studies and anecdotes – why to use them, when to use them, where to use them – plus other personalisation tools and techniques to lift your applications and leave a positive lasting impression and hopefully be successful.The session is presented by Roger Horam of Red Lynx Limited who, as a project manager became a fundraiser by necessity and has now been doing it for over 22 years:- 20 years+ experience of leading writing successful projects – some delivered; others passed on. Funding in excess of €80m brought in across 3rd sector, private sector, academia, health and public sector (national and local government).- In addition to large scale EU funding projects (despite Brexit), also works with charities who get their income from grants, trusts, individual giving and corporates through to social enterprises who require some grants and trusts, but also generate commercial income.- Working extensively in humanitarian aid and Enlargement and Neighbourhood countries.- 90%+ of bids ranking 1st or 2nd on Quality / Technical Scoring.
