Business plan and bid appraisal service

Part of delivering the ATU mission, the Funding Bid and Business Plan Appraisal Service is to promote and support community asset transfer and help a growing number of projects become viable realities through the application of accredited expertise.  This free service is available to community groups considering or already involved with asset transfer through review and discussion of plans and documents.  There can be an initial or full review with feedback on business plans or funding bids; recommendations made about the match to funders and the readiness of bids; funding strategies developed; further funding opportunities can be explored; guidance given on funding bids and further sources of support identified.  The service can be used to reduce the time needed to revisit plans and documents and maximise the value of the time already invested your community project.
