Funding for small charities, like @dmkpotential, is difficult to source, but also in the instance that you do get it, is difficult to report back about.
Really good thread for an insight into what small charities have to deal with ⬇️
Surely there has to be a better way of funding small charities? Our income is around £350k a yr & we have 35 different funders, all asking us to report back individually. @IVAR_UK @NPCthinks @DSC_Charity @SocialChangeAg @naomi_southwell - Can you help change the system?! 1/5 🧵

Thanks to #NationalLottery players, this funding helped almost 500 social enterprises across England to rebuild and recover from the pandemic, allowing them to continue making a vital difference in the communities they serve. 💪
The Social Enterprise Support Fund delivered £16.1m in grant funding to 500 social enterprises. Hear from fantastic @H_fieldsCentre who benefited from the fund which is enabling them to support their community through educational & developmental services. bit.ly/R2_SESF

I’ll have more to say on todays announcements in the next few days via a new blog.
For now, we need to build a dam to hold all the droplets of funding so we can unleash young people and the youth sectors full potential.
Today government put another brick in the wall of a national youth offer, investing a further £22m over 3 years
"All investment in young people is welcome, but we need to build a dam, not a wall, to level up young people's opportunities.” Leigh, CEO NYA

Talking to young people about youth work “My generation don’t know what youth services are. We’ve not had opportunity to attend safe places for us to get support” This makes me sad and angry for the generation of young people who’ve lost out on vital youth work! @BerksYouth

I can't wait to see what policy ideas come out of the event 💛🌎
