Funding Fair 28th April
With the current situation, we were forced to postpone our very popular funding fair. One of the people due to attend the event emailed to ask if we were going to do an online alternative. This seemed such a good idea I had to say yes. So welcome to the first Leeds Online funding fair.
So how will it work? The event will be delivered using Zoom the online video conferencing software. Each funder has been allocated a 30 minute meeting to tell you all about their grants and the process for applying. There should also be some time for questions. We will endeavour to take written questions and get you answers after the event if there isn’t time to ask your question.
You will need to book into each session that interests you and we will email you the details of how to join the meeting before it starts.
If you have never used zoom before there is a good help sheet available here.
Finally, this is a free event and will remain so but if you feel able to drop something in the pot like the cost of a coffee to help cover some of the additional costs we wouldn’t say no, just make a donation when you book your ticket for the sessions using www.paypal.me/communitymattersyork
