Free Advice and Training
Our Funding Support Service is free for CVS Inverclyde members and designed to remove barriers to securing funding, build skills and confidence and help Inverclyde organisations develop sustainable income strategies.
No funding enquiry is too big or too small. Whether you need support with running costs for a weekly drop-in, guidance on a community asset transfer or help completing an application form, we are here to assist.
Meet the Funder Sessions
These sessions connect organisations directly with local and national funders to increase understanding of grant programmes and reduce time spent on unsuitable applications.
Members can access regular in-person and online sessions. These provide learning opportunities and a chance to ask funders questions about your projects or ideas.
Visit our events calendar for upcoming dates.
