    Alex Wood, Founder

    Reusable structures for project summaries, outcomes, budgets, and risk registers, ready to adapt for any UK grant application.

    Project Summary

    A structured template for describing your project clearly and concisely to funders.

    • • Need and context: who benefits, problem size, evidence
    • • Solution and activities: what you will deliver
    • • Milestones and timeline: key phases and dates

    Outcomes and Measurement

    Framework for defining what success looks like and how you'll measure it.

    • • Outputs vs outcomes: distinguishing activities from impact
    • • Indicators: quantifiable metrics for each outcome
    • • Data collection: methods, frequency, and responsible parties
    • • Learning and evaluation: how findings will shape delivery

    Budget and Justification

    A cost breakdown template with narrative justification for each line item.

    • • Cost categories and assumptions
    • • Match funding and in-kind contributions
    • • Value for money narrative

    Risk Register

    Identify potential risks and plan mitigation strategies before they arise.

    • • Risk description and likelihood rating
    • • Impact assessment (low / medium / high)
    • • Mitigation actions and contingency plans
    • • Risk owner and review frequency

    Organisational Capacity

    Demonstrate your team's ability to deliver the project effectively.

    • • Governance structure and key personnel
    • • Relevant experience and track record
    • • Policies and compliance (safeguarding, EDI, data protection)
    • • Infrastructure and resources available

    Tips for using templates

    • • Always adapt language to match the funder's priorities and terminology.
    • • Keep answers concise. Stay within word limits and avoid unnecessary jargon.
    • • Use concrete numbers and evidence wherever possible.
    • • Have someone outside your team review for clarity before submission.
