S2E15. Get in the Yes Pile with Prue Saxby

  • Summary

  • Do you feel that you’re fighting tooth and nail to secure grant funding to keep your food waste dreams alive?

    While tackling the immense problem of food waste, many small businesses and organisations ask where can I get help? Where can I get support to implement ideas that I have? How can I scale? This week, the conversation is centred around these very questions as Jayne Gallagher chats with Prue Saxby, an expert in grants from Indigo Gold, who has helped many businesses get funding to overcome problems such as food waste. Tune in as Jayne and Prue talk about:

    • The most common mistakes when it comes to grant writing and applications and how to solve them and five key points to consider.

    • Creating a grant wish list and incorporating strategic planning into your approach. This planning demonstrates to funders that your project is well-thought-out and aligns with long-term goals.

    • How to ensure that your project fits the grant’s criteria. Don’t try to force your project into a grant that isn’t a good match.

    For food businesses there are many grants available, specifically around food waste, recycling, packaging, manufacturing and export.
