Introduction to Fundraising
The workshop is for people who wish to move into fundraising, have just started
in fundraising or have responsibilities for fundraisers.
We examine each of the different areas of fundraising - public donors, major
donors, legacies, trusts and corporates. We explain how the different areas fit
together and support each other to create a balanced fundraising effort.
We look at how much investment each area of fundraising requires, what returns
to expect and how long it is likely to take to achieve those returns. We
examine what the rest of your organisation could be doing to help make your
fundraising more successful.

Feedback From Past Attendees
I must say I was really impressed with the course and the content. 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.
