Grant Application Co‑Writing
From £3,950 + VAT
Two experts in the room: one in grants, one in your business. You bring the technical knowledge and own the project. We bring funding judgement, commercial challenge and research expertise, and guide the narrative. AI, used live in the session, turns that shared thinking into draft text through a process we’ve refined on real applications.
Includes:
- Live co‑writing sessions that move the application forward
- A final application review and debrief
You make real progress in every session, get expert challenge on eligible costs, positioning and fit, and learn how to approach the next application yourself. Fixed fee, no success fee.
We use paid AI tools with model training switched off, so nothing you share is used to train AI models.

“We’ve partnered with Sharp Insights, who have helped LeafyColl secure £550k in funding across multiple projects. They provide advice on grant strategy and project scoping, as well as ensuring we have a strong commercial case underpinning our grant applications. We’re looking forward to continuing to work with them as we commercialise our technology.”
“I found the tips in the Grant Funding Fundamentals online course and workshops to be incredibly practical. The guidance was immediately applicable, helping me feel far more prepared to build a grant strategy. I highly recommend this workshop to anyone looking to strengthen their approach to grant writing and boost their confidence in navigating funding applications.”
