Grant Writing Club 

Our Grant Writing Club brings together academics to discuss the grant applications they are developing. This group purposefully includes academics from across disciplines, to allow peer review of the interdisciplinary aspects including the accessibility of applications to reviewers from other disciplines. Throughout the year we can provide support for arranging peer review and arranging mock panels where appropriate.
