About this Event
Are you an entrepreneur, starting a new project, running a small business with a social purpose, or part of a community group or charity?
Come to a Funding Fair 10am – 1pm on Tuesday 21st April at Urban HQ in Swansea.
This event brings together lots of funders and support organisations so you can find out what funding is available, how to apply, and ask questions.
Stalls from organisations like Swansea Council Business Grants, Community Foundation Wales (SWEF), Swansea Council Business Grants, Cwmpas, Mynydd y Gwair, Alun Evans Fund (SCVS), The National Lottery Community Fund, Sport Wales and National Churches Trust.
Friendly people on hand to talk you through what support is out there.
Tips and advice to help you get started.
Last year we ran a really popular “What to ask a funder” session at 9.45am, and the feedback was brilliant.
So we’re repeating it.
Attendees told us it was genuinely useful and gave them confidence walking into the main event space. It helped them understand what to ask, how to approach funders and how to make the most of those conversations.
Who it's for:
People and organisations who want to do good things - whether you're just starting out, already set up, or looking to grow. This includes social businesses, CICs, charities, and community groups.
Some of the questions you can get help with:
· What funding can I apply for?
· Where do I start?
· What makes a good application?
· Who can help me?
· How do I build good relationships with funders?
