Advice for putting together a funding application for public engagement projects

If you're developing a research grant, or looking to apply for a public engagement grant, this toolkit covers the key things you'll need to think about.

Get Support for your application

Planning your application

If you're in the early stages of thinking about applying, send us an email and we're happy to help you plan out what you could do, and talk to you about how you can include engagement activity already going on at Warwick as part of your applications. We can also help broker partnerships with local community groups, and introduce you to Fellows who may have direct experience of the type of activity you're thinking of.

We'd also always recommend you also talk to your departmental contact in R&IS. They can advise on putting together and submitting applications, and also have advice and guidance to help with full economic costing, ethics approval, and seeking departmental approval.

WIE Fellows Peer Review

Once you have a draft application ready we're happy to pass this on to a volunteer from our network of WIE Fellows who can read and provide feedback. The Fellows are only able to support with applications solely focussed on engagement, or elements of a research bid which focus on your plans for engagement work. For holistic Peer Review of the whole application you should use R&IS' service.
