Some funding ideas
We are always being asked for sources of funding to enable you to purchase that extra bit of equipment or to host a special event. Listed here are some that we have heard of recently.
Edina Trust grants – If you are an Oxfordshire state primary school and have not previously applied for one of these grants then you are eligible for a grant of up to £500 towards a science project during the 2009-10 school year. The grant may be used for any science project including funding a trip, buying equipment or hosting a science day. To apply e.mail edina@kirkhousetrust.org for an application form
Children in need small grants – This scheme offers grants of up to £10,000 a year for three years to organisations working with children. This is the first time this organisation has operated a UKwide small grants programme and they are hoping to reach organisations that have not previously considered applying for funding from Children in Need.There will be four application deadlines in 2010 – 15 January, 15 April, 15 July and 15 October.
