Funding advice, information and support
GVOC offers funding advice to voluntary and community
groups based in Gateshead. There are staff who can advise on appropriate
sources of funding and how best to apply. Directories are available
to help with searches and access to various databases which staff will be happy to help with.
If you require any funding advice, you will need to
make an appointment with one of our staff, who will be happy to
take you through the process whether your group needs a few pounds, a few thousand or hundreds of thousands.

Funding Advice
Funding advice sessions can be conducted over the phone, via e-mail or in person
and are available with one of our advisers. In these sessions we
define the group's sustainability, assess the organisation's
funding needs, appraise current strategies and define new ones if
necessary. Contact us to make
an appointment.

Funding
for Individuals
Funding opportunities for individuals are also available. Due to
staffing restrictions no personal contact is made but every enquirer
receives a full list of suitable funders, after the completion of
a short questionnaire.
There are
some suitable directories in our Funding Library, which individuals
can access but not loan.

Support
The Funding Adviser can also assist groups in completing application
forms before submission.
GVOC recognises that ongoing support is sometimes
needed by groups. Therefore there is no limit as to how many times
one group can access our funding advice support in any given time.
Please contact us if you would like any kind of support.
