Norfolk Unites Highlights Report
As we complete the development phase of the work read here to find out how Norfolk Unites can benefit your organisation
Looking for funding or looking for organisations to work with? Are there organisations that would want to work with you but don’t know you are there? The answer could be Norfolk Unites.
We are pleased to attach the Norfolk Unites Highlights Report to tie up the development phase of the work that has been ongoing since January 2008 - see Executive Summary on page 3 or cast your eye over the full report for more information. We also attach a Norfolk Unites flyer for further information.
On the Norfolk Unites website we have brought together a range of contracts such as those held by the LSC (Learning and Skills Council) and Jobcentre Plus into one place – you can now search for all these on our Funding page! Organisations can also advertise for partners here for any type of work they are involved in.
Some key funds at present that may be of interest include:
- Community Grants (up to £12,000 to deliver third sector based learning - deadline 12th October);
- The Hardship Fund (to support third sector organisations in England who are delivering front-line services to the most vulnerable and disadvantaged) and;
- Flexibility and Innovation Fund from LSIS (deadline 23rd October) to look at innovative ways to improve learning and standards in the third sector.
With our Directory, organisations are registered by What they do; Where and; Service Users – this means those groups can be found by people looking for the service they provide. A recent example is a Norwich City College led ESF application for ‘NEET in Norwich’, where 6 specific third sector organisations were included in the bid due thanks to Norfolk Unites. Let people and the funding find you by registering on the Directory!
The Directory is linked to the Funding page, so that when specific offers come up, we can flag them up to specific groups. Ensure the search comes to you next time by registering with us - FREE for third sector organisations.
For 10 minutes of someone’s time, the potential rewards far outweigh the time it takes to type in the initial information. Click here to sign up.
If you have been meaning to sign up but haven't yet done so, why not put aside 10 minutes with a cup of tea and get your details on there!
We are particularly keen for this information to be spread as wide as possible amongst the various networks that we all work with. Please feel free to forward this information onto anyone you feel could benefit from being aware of Norfolk Unites!
