You are here Funding: Peddling and Meddling: Techniques for Tough Times
Matt Harvey, poet, columnist and regular contributor to BBC Radio 4 will be a source of inspiration for South West funding advisers as MC at their annual conference in Taunton on 6 October.
The event run by GEORGE, the South West Funding Advisers' Network, will explore the resources available to voluntary organisations in addition to grants, introducing different approaches to help them survive the recession and become stronger in the future.
This is an essential networking event for those who give funding advice, free at the point of delivery, to voluntary and community organisations in the South West and will cover a wide range of themes from accessing in-kind resources to bartering or negotiating. A star peddler will share their secrets. The peddlers' market place will have stalls from Cranfield Trust, In Kind Direct, Community Payback, Reach, and IT for Communities.
The conference will also include a funders' panel where delegates can question funders, including Esmée Fairbairn, Children In Need, Comic Relief, Lloyds TSB, Heritage Lottery Fund, Big Lottery Fund and South West Foundation.
