In partnership with Community Matters Yorkshire, we are delighted to announce our 2022 Funding Fair, which will take place over three days between the 14th and 16th March 2022.
Day One will see the launch of our Fundraising Network where local organisations have the opportunity to network with each other and share best practices. We also hope to use this forum to provide regular updates as to the support we can provide to voluntary organisations. An agenda for this event is being finalised and full details will be shared shortly. If you would like to attend this meeting, being held online, complete the registration form here.
Days Two and Three will be dedicated to a range of national funders who will be hosting sessions over Zoom, and will be aimed at sharing details with attendees on their funding opportunities as well as on how their application process works. Funders will also answer questions from attendees towards the end of their sessions.
