Sooner or later most groups exhaust their own income generation ability and need to find new sources of funding for their programmes. EDRCN now offers a new grant search facility using our online facility at www.grantfinder.co.uk

If you are a current paid up EDRCN member then a member of staff can be contacted to carry out a search for you. This is licensed software and can only be used by a member of staff. The more specific you can be about your needs the better. You will need to provide answers to the following questions:

• How much does your project need?

• Do you want capital only or capital + revenue or revenue only?

• Where and when will your project take place?

• Do you want one-off funding or funding for 1-3 years?

• Who are the beneficiaries? (Be very specific here e.g. young people U-18; pensioners; people with a disability; the whole community)

• What type of programme will you run? (arts; health; sports; community development; social enterprise; peace & reconciliation)

And remember, you need to be a paid up member of EDRCN to access this service, so if you haven't renewed your membership do so now!
