The fundraising market is a difficult place, made even more so by the pandemic.
We’re pleased to be working with =mc consulting & National Arts Fundraising School, to offer two bursaries to fundraisers in Wales to attend their online National Arts Fundraising School in May and June. This renowned course goes deep into the strategy and tactics required to fundraise from trusts and foundations, business and individuals – and much more.

The course runs (you need to be available for all dates):
Monday 17th & Tuesday 18th May
Monday 24th & Tuesday 25th May
Tuesday 1st & Thursday 3rd June
Monday 7th & Tuesday 8th June
Because of the pandemic, this year we are supporting the online version of the course. Understanding the financial pressures this has brought, this year we will also cover the full costs of the placements (£1200 plus VAT)
All applications must be made by the individual attending. It’s open to employed fundraisers and freelancers. This is targeted at those who without financial support would not be able to take this opportunity.

Selection is by individual application against the following criteria.
