East Riding Voluntary Action Services (ERVAS) is holding a free half-day workshop for community and voluntary groups on how to secure funding.

The event, taking place in Beverley on Friday, January 25, from 9am to 2pm, will cover what groups need to know to be eligible for funding and what makes a successful application.

Representatives from both local and national agencies will be there to provide information about current funding opportunities and East Riding of Yorkshire Council’s External Funding Team will also be on hand to give general funding advice and demonstrate GRANTnet, the free online grants search tool for voluntary and community groups operating in the East Riding area.

For further information and to reserve a place, phone Colette Underwood on 01482 871077 or email colette@ervas.org.uk
