“Acquiring funding is often easier than you think, and this directory simplifies the process. And, there’s still a lot of money out there, as evidenced by the £3 billion available here.”

Plenty of fundraisers have used it throughout their career. John Williams, Head of Fundraising, Ataxia UK, described it as “a trusted friend, over the last 20 years I wouldn’t be without it”.

The 2014/15 edition of The Directory of Grant Making Trusts is available for £125 from the Directory of Social Change and from Amazon.co.uk.
