I don't have direct experience, but I understand there are volunteers who specialise in doing paperwork, e.g. grant applications, for charities. Perhaps you could get introduced to one via a local green/sustainability/community charity? I don't know whether that's realistic - perhaps these people are always swamped with requests for help.

Are there any registered charities that will funnel donations to hyper local organisations that are not themselves registered?
The background is that my local park is raising money to replace the kids' play equipment. My employer will match donations emoyees make to a registered charity but the park group isn't registered because they are so small. I'm looking for a (legit!) way we can meet the registration criteria for matched funding.
My thinking is there must be a lot of small fundraising groups that are not registered as charities and maybe there is an org set up to help them by providing a registered charity wrapper.
