The local authority recently funded us. But this funding has come to an end. Will you fund it instead?
We do not pick up any funding cuts made by a local authority or any other public body. However, often the funding from the public body is time limited and not an ongoing grant/contract. We may consider continuation funding in these cases, but this is rare. Generally where a public body has provided funding we would expect it to provide some continuation funding, otherwise it is unlikely that such a project could have any medium/long-term sustainability.
We do not consider funding from the lottery as funding from a public body and are therefore more likely to consider continuation funding for projects previously funded by the lottery or which have been funded by independent charitable trusts.
