How do I get funding?
This is where you need to speak to us. Your success depends on, firstly, your project’s eligibility (it needs to be well planned, researched, evidenced and written) and, secondly, your ability to find the right fund. We can help you with this.
As a guide, your project should be something that falls outside of the remit of statutory funding and has impact beyond your statutory responsibilities (although projects can be linked to this). If you’re not sure about your project, we’re able to advise on its suitability for funding and even give you some ideas on how to develop it to meet the funder’s requirements.
