What is it about?
The session will cover two main areas. First, some hints and tips on maximising your chances of being successful in grant applications. It was also deal with some of the common terms and conditions found attached to grant funding, helping you to spot the issues and reduce the chances of you being found to be in breach.

It is highly likely that the recession and its aftermath will make competing for grants more difficult as the funds available reduce and the number of those applying for them increases. It is therefore important to be well-prepared when making grant applications as well as to make sure that you fully understand the terms and conditions when you are successful.
