GRANT AND ITT BIDDING

Grant Applications: Turning Opportunities Into Success

The shifting economic landscape, driven by Brexit and changing agricultural policies, has made grant funding more vital than ever for farms and rural businesses. Securing the right funding can unlock opportunities for new income streams, improved productivity, and sustainable growth. With extensive experience in grant applications, I’m here to help you navigate the complexities and secure the funding your project needs to thrive.


Proven Expertise in Securing Grants

With a background managing European grant funds across the East of England and working alongside DEFRA, I bring a wealth of experience and a proven track record. In the past year alone, I’ve successfully secured funding for a wide variety of projects, ranging from farm shops and no-till drills to reservoirs and campsites, with grants spanning from a few hundred pounds to £2.1 million.

Some highlights include:

  • LEADER Grants: Supporting rural businesses with funding for innovative projects.
  • Growth and Productivity Funds: Helping farms improve efficiency and expand operations.
  • Area-Based Partnerships: Working with groups to secure large-scale, transformative funding.

My success rate in grant applications speaks for itself, with every bid in the past 12 months being approved.


A Tailored Approach to Grant Applications

I believe successful funding bids begin with understanding your passion and aligning it with the goals of potential funders. My approach includes:

  • Identifying suitable funding opportunities, even those not widely known.
  • Crafting compelling applications that showcase your project’s value.
  • Ensuring your project meets all eligibility and compliance requirements.

Support for Invitations to Tender (ITTs)

Beyond grants, Invitations to Tender (ITTs) are increasingly used by local councils and government organizations to commission work. I’ve helped both individual businesses and institutions like the University of East Anglia secure contracts, offering expertise in tender preparation, submission, and contract negotiations.

Whether you’re an individual business or part of a group or partnership, I provide tailored support to help you access the funding you need. From small-scale initiatives to multi-million-pound projects, I’ll guide you every step of the way to ensure your application is as strong as possible.
