Funding / Access support

I regularly work within fundraising across my varied roles and have experience of writing, co-writing and securing multiple successful applications. I also offer access support for artists applying for funding via Arts Council England.

ACE Access Support

To date I’ve worked with three artists to submit ACE Project Grant applications. The first was successful (£6k plus access), the second was not (£13k plus access) and the result of the third is pending. I have also worked on two DYCP applications (results pending).

Thank you so much for ALL your hard work in helping me write this and for navigating me through the process. I would have given up so many times if it wasn’t for your persistent, calm encouragement – and strong conviction that it was a worthy proposal and good enough for ACE funding”
