Free confidential Funding & Governance advice surgeries are being hosted at various venues around the County by Community Impact Bucks and the Buckinghamshire Community Foundation.
These one on one advice surgeries are being offered to voluntary and community groups in Buckinghamshire who do not employ professional paid fundraisers on their staff.
A 45 minute, one on one session can be reserved with the sustainability team to discuss funding requirements for your group. This could be about: costing/ budgeting, funding applications, running fundraising activities, or exploring ways of developing sustainable funding alternatives to traditional grant funding streams. We can offer an unbiased initial valuation of your project and/or revenue streams, guidance on your constitution, signposting to other sources of expertise and to appropriate funders you may wish to consider.
N.B. With only 6 appointment slots per month, demand is always high and slots get taken up swiftly. We expect people to honour their appointments. Whilst this is not always possible in the event of emergencies, we do ask for seven days’ notice if you are unable to attend. We operate a reserve list and can usually offer cancelled appointments to someone else.
