Funding remains one of the biggest challenges facing voluntary organisations today. Whether you are just starting out with securing funding or want to start getting better results, this webinar from the Scottish Council for Voluntary Organisations (SCVO) can help.
This session will help groups and organisations to work smarter when it comes to grant funding. You will be introduced to key aspects of:
- Choosing the right funds - understanding how to assess whether a fund matches your organisation’s needs and avoid spending time on opportunities that are unlikely to succeed
- Using Funding Scotland effectively - making the most of search tools, filters, saved searches and alerts to stay organised and focused
- Using digital tools, including AI, responsibly - understanding where tools can support research, idea‑shaping and clarity, and where human judgement must lead
- Thinking like a funder - gaining insight into how funders assess applications and what they typically look for
- Strengthening application quality - learning how to communicate your work clearly and ensure your applications align with fund criteria
