Whenever we speak to a VCSE group – be it a registered charity, CIC, social enterprise, or community group – the thing they need the most is funding. Funding for charities is crucial to providing the services our local communities need the most.

But there are so many funding streams, grant programmes and tenders out there for voluntary sector organisations, it can be difficult to find the right ones. From some of the UK’s biggest funders through to small and micro-grants providers, navigating the minefield of criteria, terms, and conditions can be overwhelming.

That’s where we can help.

We will help you to identify the best funding streams available for your organisation and work with you to develop your application. We’ll do everything in our power to give you the best chance of success.

As part of our commitment to developing and advancing the local third sector, we want to provide the Stoke-on-Trent and Staffordshire voluntary organisations with the most up to date funding opportunities and achieve the best success rate possible so that the local voluntary sector can continue to thrive.
