The Welsh Funding Guide

A tool for anyone seeking support for causes in Wales, this text contains details of funding from a wealth of sources, brought together in one comprehensive, bilingual, easy-to-use guide. There are sections covering the following funding sources: 90 grant-making trusts, giving a combined annual grant total of more than #16 million to Welsh voluntary organizations; 36 companies, who between them have given Welsh causes over #2.9 million in cash donations and #4.1 million in community contributions; the five National Lottery Distribution Boards and their joint programmes, which gave a total of #87 million in 2002 to organizations benefiting Wales; government sources, covering Welsh Assembly divisions, ASPBs and other related funds, able to give more than #50 million throughout Wales; an overview of funding available to Wales from the Structural Funds and budget lines of the European Union; and a separate section on the variety of charitable, statutory and other funding schemes managed by Wales Council for Voluntary Action. Each section includes advice on how to approach the funder for the best chance of winning their support.
This guide should be of use to anyone fundraising for their charity or community group in Wales - whether their first language is Welsh or English.
