You can subscribe to our monthly funding newsletter which has all the latest funding news, information on upcoming grant deadlines, upcoming funding events from across the county, tips and tricks on writing a good application and fundraising ideas.
Funding Fairs / Meet the Funder Events

Ask questions and get practical advice about projects.

Network with other organisations.

These events help organisations offering funding:

To consider the emerging trends, challenges and needs of those groups and charities in the county that seek funding.
-
To respond effectively to local needs.
