Inside Grantmaking https://www.kedaconsulting.co.uk/inside-grantmaking Many charity leaders and fundraisers submit funding applications and then wonder what happens to them.

Who receives it? How do they react to it? How is it assessed? What due diligence is there? Who makes the final decision?

Host Alex Blake — a fundraising consultant with over 20 years of experience helping charities secure major grants — speaks to foundation staff, trustees and advisors who share insight into how grantmakers operate and why. They also share their thinking on the bigger questions shaping the sector — how grantmaking practice is evolving, what funders are grappling with, and where philanthropy is heading.

The conversations are honest, practical, and respectful of everyone involved. Better understanding on both sides of the table is good for charities, good for funders, and good for the communities both exist to serve.

If you work in fundraising, lead a charity, or make decisions about grants, this is for you.
