Get Grants are the Grant Funding Experts with over 50 years combined experience working in both grant fundraising and grant giving. Since starting in 2012, we have grown to support thousands of fundraisers through our training and FREE events each year. Our events bring fundraisers together to access friendly peer-support from our UK-wide Get Grants Community.

We are committed to being sector-led. We provide accessible and practical training and resources that enable fundraisers of all skill levels, and organisations of all shapes and sizes, to increase their fundraising success.

What people say about us…

“There is a sense of loneliness in bid writing sometimes and Get Grants brings us all together in a collective sigh of relief and renewed inspiration.“

“Get Grants is proving to be a major life-line for charities and other small organisations. Thank you very much.”

“I am new to the Trust/Grants fundraising sector and I have found the Get Grants events I have attended so far to be an invaluable support and source of information in my first few months in my new role.”

Alison, Staffordshire Network for Mental Health

In the present climate it is really useful to have your resource for charities with limited budgets to help them bring in much needed funds.

Sarah, YMCA Fairthorne Group

This was the best fundraising training I have been to so far and would really recommend to anyone. The trainer made the sessions enjoyable and engaging and got us talking and involved when they could. It was lovely to also meet others from other charities and hear their experiences and learn from them. Thanks so much!

Praise for Get Grants FREE Virtual Conference 2024

“So much magic here over the past few days, thank you so much for bringing us all together – I feel rejuvenated!”

“Feel energised and beginning to see my worth — thank you”

“Thank you the last two days have been well worth letting my emails pile up !! 👏”

“Fantastic and positive conference. I feel reinvigorated to get back to it after what seems like an age of negativity around fundraising in the sector.”

“Absolutely fantastic 2 days, thank you! We feel less alone, like we are doing a lot of things right, and understand how to take rejection better :-)”

“I’ve been in fundraising for 5 years and this has been the best conference I’ve ever been to. Thank you.”

“FANTASTIC and a much-needed conference”

“Thank you for the feeling of not being alone and for such a well-organised and delivered 2-day session, for free, AMAZING! 🤩”

“Very accessible – very interesting – and surprisingly fun. Thank you!”

“Get Grants is proving to be a major life-line for charities and other small organisations. You are extremely good at identifying the barriers and helping us to keep going. Thank you very much.”

“It’s so good to be having more open conversations on mental health in fundraising. So many of us are under extreme pressure and are isolated.”

“Very insightful, thank you!!! Wonderful to see the great community of grant writers/fundraisers 🌻”

“Really great to feel talked to, rather than talked at.”

“A superb day which has provided so many take away messages which will really help my work and wellbeing; thank you so much”

“It’s reassuring to hear about the struggles and acknowledge it’s not an easy environment to raise funds. It feels like I can give an informed message to the trustees from a BIG group of people.”

“I had not heard of Get Grants before the conference invitation came through. You are so knowledgeable and have facilitated an extremely informative day. I am the fundraiser for our charity, I do the publicity, marketing, recruitment etc etc and it can often feel quite lonely. This has been fabulous today in being connected with other people that are speaking my speak and knowing what it is like in my role. THANK YOU!”

“Very accessible and helpful – thank you 🙂”

“What a fabulous day! Really looking forward to tomorrow! Thank you so much for putting this Conference together and running it so well. All guest speakers have been brilliant, most informative and very motivational, thank you for an extremely useful day :)”

“Thanks so much Get Grants! It’s been an amazing blend of wellbeing, grant writing practicals and funders’ feedback for me!”
