My knowledge and confidence has increased hugely. I got a lot from your course and a lot of pointers! I can say after years of fundraising I learnt so much from your bid writing course. It was a very informative day and for someone who has not written bids before I am definitely more confident to get involved with them. I found the workshops very helpful. It is a whole new area for me but the information you imparted has given me a lot of confidence with the direction I need to take and for that I am very grateful. I found the day very informative and it gave me confidence to take on this aspect of work that I had been apprehensive of. I enjoyed the session and found it valuable. So much relevant, practical information all passed on in a way which I was able to follow. All greatly enhanced by your sense of humour. It was a useful course and your examples real or otherwise helped to make it practical. Many thanks. The morning just flew by - always a good sign! I enjoyed the course and learnt a lot. I will begin putting this into practice. Unsubscribe Alternatively send a blank e-mail to unsubscri...@nfpmail1.co.uk quoting haproxy@formilux.org in the subject line.
