Charlesworth's Grant Proposal Editing Services
Grant funding is becoming more and more competitive, highlighing the importance of using every means available to increase the likelihood that your grant proposal will be favourably reviewed and awarded funding. Plus, funding bodies frequently use reviewers of applications who may not be subject specialists in your field. By using our editing services, we can help you ensure that your proposal's message and proposed methods are clear and easy to understand, even for a non-specialist.
Many academics, early career researchers in particular, will underestimate their competition, who are more experienced at applying for grants and obtaining funding. Researchers should seek to gain every advantage possible when writing their grant proposals.

- Advise you if you should include diagrams and figures to represent data collected and outcomes which will make it easier for a reviewer who is outside of your research field to assess your application.
- Often, one of the first questions a grant proposal reviewer will be asked is: does the proposed research fit within the funding mandate? Make sure you have answers for all of the questions in the proposal as you put your application together.
