Funding Applications

The current funding landscape has become increasingly more competitive with a larger number of organisations applying for a smaller pool of available funds. This means the funding application process can seem arduous.

We will assist you identify suitable funding sources for your organisation by aligning funders’ investment principles to your aims and objectives.

We will help you develop a suite of funding application supporting documents, e.g. Business Plan, Financial Modelling, Market Research, Stakeholder Consultations, SWOT analysis, Feasibility Studies, Options Appraisals, Impact Assessments, and Social Impact Measurement and Assessments.

A clearly defined Business Plan is not only crucial to communicate your organisation’s activities to funders but is also crucial for Board and staff to understand what/when/how you will deliver your strategic aims and objectives. 

  • We are immensely grateful to Slikk7 for their outstanding support throughout the development of Shinty’s Story - Sgeul na Camanachd. Their expertise and dedication were instrumental in guiding us through the complex stages of a successful National Lottery Heritage Fund submission. Thanks to their meticulous planning and strategic input, we secured an investment of just under £200,000, enabling us to bring this ambitious bilingual shinty exhibition to life. Slikk7’s professionalism and tailored approach made a significant impact, ensuring our vision was realised. We wholeheartedly recommend Slikk7 to any organisation seeking expert consultancy for heritage and cultural projects.

  • Tom and Valerie worked with us on our strategic planning at Green Hive. They joined our strategic planning day then helped us to implement findings throughout our business plan. They really helped us think about our audience and bring our business plan to life for a funder. Beyond helping us with our strategic plan, they provided us with several tools that we can now use to better manage projects, performance and our funding pipeline. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone, they were a delight to work with and always one step ahead, knowing what we needed before we did.
