Struggling with grant applications? Want to turn rejections into successful funding?

Join Jodie Ryan from JBR Consultancy for a practical, hands-on masterclass designed to turn rejections into successful funding.

This is a practical, hands-on session perfect for not-for-profits, schools, community groups, artists, researchers, or small businesses looking to secure funding.


This isn't a lecture - it's a working session. You will walk away not just with knowledge, but with a complete Grant Writing Playbook: a physical toolkit of templates, checklists, and strategies you will use for every future application.


You Will Learn How To:

  • Future-Proof Your Writing: How to use AI tools ethically and understand risks (without losing the human touch).
  • Think Like an Assessor: Learn the "Golden Rules" of what gets funded (and what gets rejected).
  • Build the Perfect Case: Use the "Logic Model" to prove your project works.
  • Master the Budget: Stop guessing figures and build a fundable business case.
  • Understand Risk Management: Master Risk Management matrices to prove you are a ‘safe pair of hands’.
  • Write with Authority: Learn what to say (and what not to say).
  • Understand the funding landscape and how to build relationships with funders.
  • Master the "nuts and bolts" of the application process.
  • Build a stronger case: Secure powerful letters of support and demonstrate sustainability.


Your Investment Includes:

  • Personalised Training with a 25-year industry veteran.
  • The Grant Writing Playbook: A comprehensive physical workbook and template guide.
  • Catering: Morning tea and lunch provided
