10 Steps to Grant Success

Grant Writing Workshop

If you're part of a small to medium not-for-profit or for-purpose organisation and want to boost your chances of funding success, this practical and proven Grant Writing Workshop is for you.


10 Steps to Grant Success will set your organisation up for success for all future grant applications. Grant rounds are highly competitive and it's important to understand which grants to apply for, what programs or infrastructure costs can be covered, how to build relationships with funders and, of course, how to write a succinct and compelling grant application.


Delivered by grant writing experts Beth Innes and Renee Selby, who have secured over $10 million in grant funding across community, sport, art, infrastructure, and academic sectors, this one-day workshop is a deep dive into the 10 Steps to Grant Success.


Whether you're new to grants or want to improve your success rate, this hands-on workshop will give you the tools and confidence to plan, write, and deliver winning applications.

The Place is proud to be the first community organisation in NSW to take part in the NSW Device Bank Pilot Program, supporting more people in our community to get connected and build confidence online. Through the program, we helped allocate 30 refurbished laptops to local people in our community, including seniors, carers, people with disability and people from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds. Participants receive 12 months of free data, digital skills training and IT Support to help them make the most of their device. Delivered by NSW Telco Authority in partnership with WorkVentures and Good Things Australia, the NSW Device Bank Pilot Program is part of the NSW Government’s Digital Inclusion Strategy. The program helps bridge the digital divide by giving people access to the essential technology, connectivity and support needed in today’s digital world. We’re incredibly grateful for this opportunity for our local community and want to thank everyone who made it possible.
