    This programme takes some time for the participant so the grant is really useful to fill that gap in staff time.

    Funded for lesser amount - applied in 2024 -   Deloitte Digital Connect

    There's lot of supporting information about applying for the grant that is provided, which I would encourage you to read/watch/get involved with. The scoring matrix is also available so use this to guide you. The programme is about exploring a specific problem and developing a potential solution so you don't need to have exact ideas to put into the application but it helps if you have an issue in mind to tackle that you have begun to explore. The application is structured in a way that means you start doing some of the design thinking activities within the application, so it is a useful exercise even if you are not successful.

    Excellent

    The application process was well supported with both written guidance and webinars which were opportunities to ask questions. It was easy to get in contact with the team. I appreciated seeing the scoring matrix, the transparency was great and meant I didn't spend unnecessary time including information the application did not require. I really liked how the application involved activities like problem statements and knowledge boards - it made applying a really useful exercise in and of itself.

    Everything is really clear and step-by-step and incredibly well thought-through and structured. I have learnt from the methods of delivery as well as from the content in the programme.

    If you had one piece of advice to give to this funder (about grantmaking or anything else), what would it be?

    Keep doing what you are doing - it is greatly appreciated and incredibly useful.
