Experience Level: Intermediate
Specialist in CIC Funding for Neurodiverse Children’s Education
Are you a highly skilled grant writer and fundraiser with a proven track record of success supporting UK-based Community Interest Companies (CICs)? We are seeking a UK-based professional with extensive experience in securing funding for education and inclusion projects, ideally within the neurodiversity or SEND (Special Educational Needs and Disabilities) sector.
About Us:
We are a pioneering CIC focused on providing alternative education and therapeutic support for neurodivergent children in the UK. Our mission is to create a nurturing, inclusive environment where children can thrive through creativity, connection, and personalised learning pathways.
What We’re Looking For:
• A seasoned fundraiser and grant writer with a high success rate securing funding from trusts, foundations, and public sector grants (e.g. Arts Council, Sport England, National Lottery, local authority funds).
• Strong understanding of the UK charity and CIC landscape, particularly in education, inclusion, and child wellbeing.
• Ability to work collaboratively with our small team to identify funding opportunities, write compelling applications, and track/report outcomes.
• Bonus if you have lived or professional experience with neurodiversity, autism, ADHD, or alternative education models.
This is a freelance role with flexible hours, ideally suited to someone passionate about social impact and education. Remote working is fine, but you must be UK-based and able to navigate UK funders and CIC regulations with ease.
To Apply:
Please send your CV, details of your success rates, and 2–3 examples of past projects... We’d love to hear why this work resonates with you.
