Who we are
grin is a multi-award winning social enterprise that specialises in helping not-for-profit organisations find the funding and resources they need to deliver great projects and vital services. We work across the United Kingdom and internationally, responding to all requests for information and practical support with friendly and accessible advice.
In 2021 and 2020 grin was named as a winner in the SME Enterprise Awards for Southern England, with our work supporting not-for-profits during COVID-19 strongly commended.
We work with not-for-profit organisations to identify the best funding sources to approach, help prepare applications for grants
and provide access to and information about other useful resources. We also send out a daily grants bulletin and produce monthly Grants and Resources Databases.
Get in touch and let grin put a smile on your face!
