Funders are increasingly looking for evidence of consultation/partnerships with communities. How do you factor this when planning your projects and how might this help you when making approaches for fundraising? We’ll look at some examples from other parts of the country where children and young people, heritage and culture have come together to address place-making, and other areas such as regeneration, housing, health and wellbeing. Led by mentor Fern Potter.
