Access support

 

I offer access support for artists, creatives and small business owners who need help applying for grants or bursaries — including Arts Council England funding and similar opportunities.

You may be eligible for access support if you identify as neurodivergent, dyslexic, experience anxiety around form filling, or find the application process overwhelming or affecting your mental health.

Access support provides practical, person-centred assistance to help you communicate your ideas clearly and confidently. Together, we can make the process more manageable and ensure your application reflects your voice and vision.

If you think you might qualify for Access Support, please get in touch to arrange a free 20-minute chat about your needs.
I usually respond within 24 hours.
