Territory Businesses and not for profit organisations can register now for free grant writing workshops.

Similar workshops were run for tourism operators in July facilitated by Tourism Central Australia and Tourism Top End.

The workshops were extremely popular and due to the overwhelming interest expressed by the business community, the Department of Business committed to running additional workshops in Darwin and in Nhulunbuy.

The Business Grants workshop will be conducted by The Grants Guy, Keith Whelan who is experienced in working with the community to secure grants and funding, across both the public and private sector.

“This workshop is delivered in an easy to understand, step by step manner making it suitable for first time grant applicants or as a recap for individuals who have completed an application before.” said Keith Whelan.

“Attendees are encouraged to think outside of the box and think about applications from a strategic and sustainable point of view.”

Two workshops will be held in Darwin on Monday 10 August at the Michael Long Leadership and Learning Centre from 9am till 12pm and from 2pm – 5pm.
