Historically black voluntary and community organisations have missed out on funding and financial support in adult and community learning. Whilst having unique strengths in connecting with ‘hard-to-reach’ communities, funding streams seem to dissolve making long-term sustainability difficult, no matter how effective the results.
This practical toolkit is designed to help.
Stressing the importance of planning, strategic thinking and working with infrastructure networks, it looks at how the system works and what you need to be successful within it. Structured for ease of access with an in-depth index, the toolkit contains chapters on:
 | Preparing funding applications, with living examples of what funders want. |
| How to make government policy work for you. |
| Sources of funding opportunities. |
| The role of infrastructure networks and the structural support available. |
| An in-depth listing of useful organisations and resources. |
Not only a must-have for black organisations developing their funding strategies, the toolkit also provides insight for policy-makers and potential funding partners and stake-holders into the nature, experiences and expectations of black voluntary and community organisations.
