Funding foWhat Really Matters

Arts, culture, heritage, innovation, and beyond.
At NTES, we help organisations and individuals secure funding for artistic, cultural, heritage, and innovative projects. Whatever the vision, we'll bring the expertise to make it happen. 

Our Fundraising Services

Our experienced Fundraising Consultants and Grant Writing team have helped clients secure  well over  £40 million  in funding since 2020. We provide tailored support across the creative, cultural, environmental, and innovation sectors, helping organisations and individuals turn ideas into funded projects.

Application Review

A Grant Writer will review your draft application, providing in-text feedback and a detailed summary report with practical recommendations. We align our advice with funder guidelines and industry best practice to help strengthen your submission before you apply. This is perfect if you already have a draft but want expert input to maximise your chances of success. 

Grant Writing

Take the stress off your shoulders with our end-to-end grant writing service. Our expert writers and consultants work collaboratively with you to craft high-quality, peer-reviewed applications tailored to the funder’s criteria. We handle drafting, editing, scoring, and uploading - you simply provide the vision, and we help turn it into a successful submission. 

Fundraising Strategies

Looking at the long-term? Our consultants can develop a 2–5 year fundraising strategy tailored to your organisation. We map funding streams, identify opportunities, and build internal capacity to ensure your projects are sustainable and thrive beyond individual grants. 

Access Support

If you face barriers to applying for funding such as disability, neurodiversity, or long-term health challenges, funders may subsidise your access support costs. Our team can provide practical support alongside grant writing, ensuring the application process is accessible to everyone. 

We understand the  unique challenges  of each sector. We’ll help you find the right funder or show you how to position it for success. 

Whether it’s a cultural festival, heritage project, innovative tech initiative, or environmental programme, we make sure your project has the best possible chance of being funded. Check out our  regular funders:
