WCVA Newsletter - 28th January 2019

This week's updates from WCVA

28 January 2019

Hello, and welcome to the WCVA newsletter!

The grant funding scheme for the third sector to help vulnerable or at-risk EU citizens needing additional support when applying for the EU Settlement Scheme (EUSS) is closing soon. The £9 million fund intends to create a network of funded organisations to ensure that a range of services are mobilised across the UK, so that support and assistance to apply for the EUSS is available to meet those who require the most support to apply. Apply here before this Friday (1 Feb)!

The third sector is built on successful collaborative working between organisations, and what better way than a thriving network with a common goal. Whenever you come up against a hurdle or are assembling a funding bid that's getting out of hand, having a group to turn to for guidance and support can carry you the extra mile. Our new training course will walk you through the steps to setting up a mutually beneficial network - but also how to sustain and rejuvenate them when they're running out of steam. Book your place here.

Thanks for reading, we'll see you again next week!
