Funding

We provide a funding advice and information service for community groups and voluntary organisations.

Our funding advice covers:

  • helping to identify your fundraising needs;
  • assisting you to develop a fundraising strategy;
  • advising you on possible funders and how to apply for funds;
  • organising training sessions and funders workshops;
  • organising Funding Fairs each year; and
  • a monthly funding e-bulletin to keep you up to date with current opportunities and other information relating to funding.
