"I attended the 1-day workshop with Charles at a London venue and found the whole day a thoroughly enjoyable and worthwhile experience. As someone relatively new to bid writing, I was able to confirm and reinforce a number of techniques whilst also learning a variety of new things at the same time. A very well-delivered course in a great location. I would thoroughly recommend this course to anyone considering joining a bid writing team or to anyone looking to extend their commercial employability. Top marks to Thornton & Lowe.
