This session focused on how to apply for funding for your community events and initiatives, including Great Big Green Week activities.

Hannah Picken, the founder of a not for profit organisation Wild Earth Movement, shared her experience of taking part in The Great Big Green Week and sourcing and applying for funding for their events.

We then heard from three funders, who shared their guidance and advice on applying for funding – Conor Rowden, Network Coordinator at Warm This Winter/Uplift UK, Perrine Rauzy, Community Manager at Action Funder and Melissa Eaglesfield, Deputy Director UK Portfolio at The National Lottery Community Fund.
