April 29th 2025 is our Funding Support Day
There are two different opportunities available to access advice and help with your group’s future bids
- Visit our offices to get one to one bespoke support from our experienced Grants team
- Join us online for a new philanthropy workshop, looking at how to craft bids specifically with our donors in mind
One to One Support
We have a bank of one to one sessions available to book. Each 30 minute slot will give you a chance to discuss your particular project with one of our experienced grants team officers, Misbah and Vicki.
We can talk in length about the opportunities and challenges you face and how our funds are best placed to help.
These sessions are face to face at our offices in Belper
If you would like to book a slot simple email us: hello@foundationderbyshire.org along with a telephone number and a rough idea of when during the day you would like to book
Sessions will start at 9.30am and run through to 4.30pm
Our Unlocking Philanthropy Workshop
Our unlocking philanthropy workshop explores what our donors motives and thought processes are when reviewing applications.
The workshop will take approx 1.5 hours with a break and will involve a chance to reflect on real feedback and experiences from family and individual donor panel meetings.
Led by assistant director, Sarah Stainthorpe, hopefully by the end of the session you’ll have a gained some new insights into how to hone a bid for this type of audience.
The workshop will start at 10.30 and finish at 12pm
