The vast majority of charities have no dedicated prospect researcher, so researching funding opportunities is often part of every fundraisers job description. Yet deadlines mean everything and the pressure of meeting funding targets can mean that accurate and up to date research often takes a back seat to getting applications out of the door.

Hands on Research can help any charity looking to establish or develop their prospect research resources and capacity. We can provide:

• Training to fundraisers in how to conduct prospect research, including a full research resources review

• Training to new researchers with little or no experience to ensure they can become a valuable part of your team and quickly

• Ongoing advice and mentoring to fundraising staff, answering questions as they arise

• Assessment and review of your existing fundraising research resources and tools

If you’d like to discuss potential training opportunities, please contact Matt Ide on: +44 (0)7902 242509 or email: info@handsonresearch.co.uk
