Help with funding ... get in touch as early as possible as it can save a lot of time in the long run!

Raising funds from external sources (charitable trusts, government funding streams, the National Lottery etc) is a complicated and time consuming affair and it needs dedication.

There is a wide range of support available through different agencies across Derbyshire, contact details for which are available from Gareth Greenwood, the Church Buildings Support Officer.

This includes software to search through the many thousands of trusts and funding streams to select those who may be persuaded to fund your initiative.

From time to time specific trusts or funding streams are drawn to our attention and we have listed a few of them here.

Finally please do keep in touch with us, we may be able to offer support and help and we would love to hear how you get on, successful or otherwise, so that others can learn from your experience.
