Local funding opportunities might be available for your group. As Freegle groups are autonomous, there are no restrictions from Freegle, as a central organisation, on groups applying for funds to help with local publicity etc.
Freegle Local Funding is a national group that all Freegle group moderators and owners are welcome to join [1]. It supports groups, working together to provide information and ideas for funding.
- In order for your group to access funds, you might find that the funding body you approach expects you to have a constitution and bank account in the name of the group. An example of group constitutions can be found at Group Constitution, which you might choose to use as a guide or template for your group.
- It is important to remember that all Freegle groups have to be non-profit, so have a look at some best practice guidelines to ensure you comply with that ethos.
- Funding Application Help gives an overview of the type of information you need to think about and provide for applications, along with Local Business Plan, an example of how you might present information about your group.
- Some links to local organisations that help voluntary groups find and apply for funding can be found at Local Funding Opportunities.
