The Bishop Radford Trust are great in their communication and clarity. The website is such a helpful resource and the correspondence by email is personal and very helpful too.
If you had one piece of advice to give to this funder (about grantmaking or anything else), what would it be?
I am so impressed with my whole experience of applying to the Trust. The only thing I would advise, would be to highlight the box at the top of the 'How to apply' page where it advises about taking the eligibility quiz. Alternatively it could be helpful to have this text highlighted in bold.
