We transform your valuable work into clear, well-structured applications, removing stress and maximising your chances of success. Let's make your funding journey smoother.

How ForWord helps: addressing your biggest worries

Charities and community groups often face significant challenges when seeking funding. At ForWord, we understand these concerns and have designed our services to directly address them, making the application process easier and more successful for you.

Eligibility & efficiency

Many organisations worry about wasting time on unsuitable applications. We carry out eligibility checks before any work begins, ensuring your efforts are focused only on genuinely suitable funding opportunities.

Hands-on support

Funding applications often stress already busy teams. We provide practical support with drafting, editing, and submission, taking pressure off your staff and trustees while keeping applications on track.

Precision & clarity

Funders are specific, and it’s easy to miss details. We focus on clarity, structure, and alignment with funder criteria, ensuring your applications clearly explain what you do, why it matters, and how funding will be used.

The ForWord difference

What makes our approach to grant writing and funding support unique? We combine expertise in crafting clear, well-structured applications with a deep understanding of funder requirements and deadlines. We don’t promise funding outcomes, but we promise exceptional work that empowers you to submit clear, well-evidenced applications you can feel confident about. The result: organisations feel more confident, less rushed, and clearer about where to focus their funding efforts.

Our comprehensive grant & funding support services

At ForWord, we offer a range of specialized services tailored to meet your individual needs, helping you navigate the complexities of securing funding:

  • Eligibility checks against funder criteria
  • Grant application writing (small to medium grants)
  • Editing and refinement of draft applications
  • Budget narrative support
  • Submission support and deadline management
  • Ongoing funding support for regular applicants

We work with registered charities, PTAs, school fundraising groups, community organisations, and CICs, especially small to mid-sized charities with limited internal fundraising capacity.

The outcome we aim for

After working with us, we want organisations to feel confident, relieved, and clearer about their funding position. Securing funding is important, but just as valuable is the sense that the application process was manageable, well thought through, and aligned with funder expectations.

Our aim is that groups feel less stressed about funding, more confident in telling their story, and better prepared for future opportunities — regardless of the outcome of any single application. We scope all work and agree fees in advance, dependent on complexity and timescales.
