Checklist

Grant readiness checklist

Checklist

Why applicants trust us

Clear rules, published openly

Grant support has a reputation problem. These are the standards we hold ourselves to, in plain language.

No fee for a promise of funding

We never charge for access to funding itself. Paid work is always defined support with an agreed scope and price.

Clear separation of roles

Programmes we administer are labelled separately from third-party opportunities we only help you understand.

Realistic expectations

We publish what support can and cannot do. Every funding decision belongs to the funder, under its own criteria.

Your data stays yours

Accounts are free, your saved grant types and notes are private, and we never sell personal information.

Experienced practitioners

Guidance comes from people who have written, reviewed and assessed real grant applications.

Written commitments

Our disclaimer, terms and service scope are published in full, not hidden behind a sales conversation.

In their words

What applicants say about working with us

Illustrative feedback from the kinds of applicants we support. Names are withheld to protect ongoing applications.

The category walkthrough helped us realise which type of funding actually matched our project before we spent weeks on the wrong application.

Community project lead

Education and youth programmes

What stood out was the honesty. They were patient, answered every question, and focused on making our case stronger.

Nonprofit director

Health and wellbeing sector

Having the checklist and a second pair of eyes on our budget narrative made the submission far more coherent.

Small business owner

Regional enterprise support

I emailed with almost no idea where to start. Within days I understood exactly which grant type suited my work and what documents I needed.

First-time applicant

Arts and culture project

They genuinely care. Nothing felt rushed, and every reply explained the reasoning instead of just telling me what to do.

Founder

Early-stage social enterprise

Our eligibility review saved us from applying to two schemes we could never have qualified for. That alone saved weeks of work.

Programme manager

Community development trust

The feedback on our project description was direct and practical. Our narrative finally sounded like the work we actually do.

Executive director

Youth mentoring nonprofit

Budget preparation was always our weak point. The guidance turned a confusing spreadsheet into a story a funder could follow.

Operations lead

Food security initiative

They responded quickly and treated our small project with the same seriousness as a large organisation would receive.

Volunteer coordinator

Neighbourhood improvement group

I appreciated that they explained what support can and cannot do up front. That honesty made me trust everything else they said.

Independent researcher

Environmental studies

The deadline planning template kept our whole team on track. We submitted three days early for the first time ever.

Grants officer

Regional charity

Their guidance on supporting documents was exactly what we needed. Everything was organised and consistent before we submitted.

Small business owner

Family-run manufacturing

  • We never charge for a promise of funding; paid work always has an agreed scope.
  • Third-party opportunities are labelled separately from programmes we administer ourselves.
  • We help you verify eligibility, deadlines and requirements before you apply.
