Many websites provide good content from funders, but it’s sometimes behind a “walled garden” and you have to pay to access it. Every interface is different. And every bid process is different. As a charity, we can’t recommend one service over another. Other services will exist. (Traditional ‘online databases’ are slowly giving way to free ‘open data’ sites.)
