Bid Writers available through CSO
As many of you will know, we ran a very successful Bid Writer project last year where we provided bid writer services to our members to enable to them to be able to submit high quality applications when applying for funding.
Unfortunately we are not able to provide this service free of charge anymore, however we will be able to provide bid writers to our members at a rate of £400 per day. Please note that CSO will receive no money for this service, as we will only be responsible for introducing you to the bid writer. After initial introductions CSO's involvement will finish and all other communications will be between the member and the bid writer.
Please contact our Membership Operations Coordinator, Harriett Johnson on 0208 064 0874 / harriett@councilofsomaliorgs.com
