Funder Finder

Funder Finder is a piece of software we have available at the Iron Mill that enables you to search around 3000 trusts and charities for funding opportunties. It is based on your own personal circumstances including geographical location, where you went to school, current industry etc.

Once you have received an offer for a programme you are welcome to book at time and come in and use the software. If you live too far away, it may be worth checking with Funder Finder to see if there is a closer location where you can use the software. You can contact them through their website.
