Our charity is working in the education sector, with the core mission to give young people access to quality education and to ameliorate the effects of deprivation on disengaged and disadvantaged young people. We'd like advice and input into our funding applications; a volunteer could work with us to help us develop high-quality funding bids on an ongoing basis or work on one particular bid, taking the lead in developing that bid. We need to ensure that we are applying for the correct grants in the most effective way possible. If you have experience in this area and think you can help, we'd love to hear from you! There is currently no fundraising expertise in the company and we are therefore looking for someone who can bring this expertise to the team.
