The Funders Fair –  9th October – Kensington Town Hall

 

This year’s funders fair is a little later than usual. It will be held on 9th October at Kensington Town Hall.

 

We are also sharing the event with our colleagues from Westminster and Kensington and Chelsea as we have done I previous years.

And with that I urge all of you to come along….

 

Register now at  https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/funders-fair-2019-registration-60919403576

 

There will be a selection of funders on the day to help you and to provide information on what they support.

Some will even provide you with useful tips on how to make applications.

 

For many of you obtaining funding has been a long and hard journey, and many of you have still to find the right funder to support you and your cause.

Funding is difficult for nearly everyone and this event will give you the opportunity to explore what you might need to do next on your journey or simply give you ideas for future applications.

It will also be a great opportunity to meet others also thinking about funding, quite simply a great networking event.

 

We at Sobus have 500+groups registered with us, and many of them are small and many new to the funding scene.

For those that have yet to obtain funding and those that have found it difficult when applying for funding this is really the event for you so make sure you come along.

 

Those who are in larger organisations and have years of experience in obtaining funding may have staff and volunteers who could benefit from this event. It really might be just the thing needed to provide that extra bit of development for them.

 

So come along on 9th October to:

Kensington Town Hall, Hornton St, Kensington, London W8 7N.

It all starts at 9:30 finishing with lunch at 1:30

Applications are now open for Walking and Cycling Grants London.

Walking and Cycling Grants London is a grants programme funded by Transport for London and administered by Groundwork London.

 

The programme is aimed at groups that are traditionally under-represented in walking and cycling (e.g through income, health, ability, isolation skills and access to information or equipment).

 

 

Walking and Cycling Grants London is a programme which supports London’s diverse communities to walk and cycle more often and more safely.

 

The programme aims to:

  • Increase walking and cycling in London (including new, lapsed or occasional cyclists)
  • Increase confidence in walking and cycling
  • Increase walking and cycling frequency
  • Make bike ownership more accessible
  • Introduce exercise to people who are particularly inactive via walking and cycling
  • Reduce social isolation and get people involved in their local community

 

 

Walking and cycling makes people healthier and happier and is an affordable, green and fun way to get around and explore the city and to get some exercise.

Just ask anyone you know who frequently walks or cycles!

London is fast becoming a cycling city and Cycling Grants London wants to make sure all Londoners benefit from the joys of cycling, regardless of their background or situation.

Often people don’t cycle because they lack the opportunity, information, skills, confidence or motivation to do so; or because they do not have access to a bicycle or the means to maintain it.

 

Cycling Grants London supports community organisations that work with those who need encouragement and support to get them cycling.

 

If you have an idea to inspire and support people in your community to cycle more often and cycle more safely, Cycling Grants London may be able to support you!
 

Type of grants available

Organisations that have not received a grant from Walking and Cycling Grants London or the Cycling Grants London before, OR that have but are looking to deliver a new project,* can apply for the following funding:

 

£10,000 for Three Year Projects

  • Year 1 – up to £5,000
  • Year 2 – up to £3,000
